US Dividend Miles Buy/Gift Miles 100% bonus - Cheap way for F/J *A Awards

[Fifa]

I booked last month for September/October travel.
At the time there was no availability showing for TG BKK-FRA (A380). Now there's seats available for numerous days around our date!
Oh, well - we got SEA-NRT-BKK-SYD in F (& J NRT-BKK) and there is nothing I can find from the US to Asia now. So I am really happy I booked when I did .

seems like someone's miles were reinstated! FlyerTalk Forums

I suspect more likely new accounts created to add to the tally...the question was asked remember.

I hope the 'buyer' is aware of the potential dangers in redeeming tickets from these accounts.

Indeed, like he's not already on their radar, too dangerous I suspect!

checkmytrip is not showing a changed leg from SYD-BKK, TG. TG have confirmed they have the ticket number against the booking. Is this all I need to be concerned with ? (was booked on cancelled flight at 3:55pm, now on 10 am flite)

How many miles would that be?

PER-AKL J 777 for 30K points return is excellent value - considering NZ charge over $3,000 for a rev ticket!

Assuming NZ release J seats that is.

Nope...just usd178.17 in taxes plus 90k points. SQ outward, TG return.

oh. I thought you were travelling in the next couple weeks - in which case there should have been an express ticketing fee. The $50 is standard.

Is it sq j or f ? And is it on A380, 77W

the only way to know for sure is to call them and ask.

however it is against most of the rules in the membership guide.
