AKL - Vietnam Booking using OWA

[PaulyB]

I'm planning the 2nd half of a OWA to fly in early 2024. (The first half will end in Oct 2023). Doing a dry run today I see that I am not able to fly from Auckland to HAN on an award booking. The system doesn't allow it. Is there a different airport in Vietnam I should be using? Thanks!

Should be right to book Auckland/Kuala Lumpur/Hanoi on Malaysian Airlines.

Ah - good point. I hadn't even thought of that search. Thanks!

Also via HKG with Cathay should work.

Flightconnections.com is a great resource for this type of research, if you aren't already familiar with it.

You might still run into an error message on the QF booking tool with something like ‘flights from Hanoi are not available as awards’. Once you find something you may need to call to have it ticketed.
