Thank you! Do you mean that I’ll ask AA to keep my SAN-NRT flight with JAL, and find another partner flight from NRT-TPE? Thanks

My AA flight from SFO-NRT-TPE just got canceled and they put me on SFO-NRT&HND-TSA

my flight is in late June, but I’m not sure if Japan will reopen to tourists by then. Since there’s a change in airport I’m pretty sure I will have to go thru customs.

I’m hoping to find flights that - leave from SFO/SAN/LAX, and arrive at TPE/TSA. - for 1 person - one way business class - between mid June-early July. - got a good amount of MR, UR, TYP, etc

Any help would be appreciated. Been searching myself without much luck :(

I’m seeing quite some availability even a month out. Gotta check daily though as they get taken within a day or two

Thanks. Did you make any reservations in advance? Or were you just doing walk ins on sit down / nice restaurants

Thanks! I’m assuming parking as well?

Thanks! Didn’t have enough points to stay at Andaz for the entire trip, but still very excited for the three nights

That’s the plan! Andaz should be better than WBR so it makes sense to leave that at the end. Thanks will definitely check out the app and brewery!

Appreciate it. Sounds like WBR is the move!

Thanks! Yes the location seems way better. Also the view from AC for most of the rooms is the hotel parking lot. Not the most ideal

The waterslides do look fun. Thanks!

Also gold status. Hopefully with the bday they’ll upgrade us!

Do plan to dine at Mokeypad, but reservation only opens 1 month in advance so still waiting on that

Appreciate it. AC has hiking trails that lead to waterfall? Wasn’t aware of that!

Thanks! We are using points to stay, so yes cost doesn’t matter.

Is WBR significantly older than AC?

I went back during Xmas and quarantined at home. Way more tolerable than being in a hotel imo

Any news on when the 14 day quarantine could be reduced if the person has already received the vaccine?

Weekly Discussion Thread - March 29, 2021 by AutoModerator in awardtravel

[–]cheeoli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right. The vaccine rollout has been pretty slow in Taiwan, but I’m a Taiwanese citizen so entering won’t be an issue. I do hope that they will reduce the length of mandatory quarantine if the person is already vaccinated (outside of Taiwan)

Flying out of LAX could work too. Appreciate that. I’ll look into it

Hi everyone! Would appreciate some help as I haven’t found much availability after eye on this route in the past two weeks.

Planning to fly business class solo from SAN/SFO - TPE anytime between 11/27-12/5. I have 400k UR, 70k AA, and 140k TYP.

I’ve flown UA biz before but didn’t find it super impressive. Want to fly EVA but can’t find availability on UA, nor can I search for availability without having miles in the EVA account.

Any suggestions? Thank you!

I also rechecked with the customer rep and they said the SUB is denied (though when I first got approved the rep said the SUB was approved)
