Have done lot of domestic and international award redemption all are good worthy redemptions but this Particular award flight is so special for me.
Being a football fan, FIFA 2022 is one such event I wouldn’t want to miss. So getting match tickets was the hardest (IYKYK)
Got the match tickets...
1.No. Not always. Have seen both economy and premium economy both available on this route. Even on last minute bookings.
(Just did a booking for premium economy few days back on this route)
2. In same PNR - No. but one can request the check in staff to tag the bag till end destination. It’s a...
If the miles are in personal account then:
1) Travel on Emirates (revenue or award flight) and extend the validity
2) extend miles by either buying or transfer.
3) redeem for skywards exclusive experience
4) Redeem emirates holiday packages
5) Redeem on Emirates hotel booking website and book...
There is no one such as the best program.
Every program has its own best and worst options. It’s our wish to see to which country are we planning and based on that to decide to which program to proceed.
Yes,
1) is 1.9L InterMiles in one account or split across 3 accounts?
InterMiles is usually redeemed on Vouchers or on domestic flight booking via InterMiles website.
But yes it can be used on eithad. For that
-> Open eithad website (no sign or account needed to search)
-> search for a route...
Yes. 2 ways.
1) One can easily see if there is seat availability on all 3 class of Vistara just by clicking on CV points instead of cash while searching on Vistara website. (see attached images, we have 5,500 CV & searching for a route with 6,000 CV requirement)
Note: In my case Coimbatore -...
3 Options
1) Club Vistara: BLR -> BOM -> DXB and return
2) Eithad: BLR - AUH (They provide complimentary shuttle to Dubai)
3) Redeem 70% of HDFC DCB points on Smartbuy when airline offers sale/discount and pay remaining 30% via card on the preferred airline and timings
You just have 2 airmiles option and if both aren’t flying from your city then you Don’t have other options!
If you don’t have Vistara flights then no use in transferring to SQ kris flyer as well.
InterMiles- STRICTLY DONT
1) maybe redeem it for Amazon PAY voucher and book flights/train via...
InterMiles???? No. Stay away from that. Do not convert to InterMiles.
1) Domestic- Vistara
International- Kris flyer
2) Completely based on the route and revenue price at that time.
We travel CJB-DEL frequently and requires 6000 Vistara points whereas Cash price for same flight is ₹12,000+
Check from BOM/DEL. From other Indian airports with QR the miles required is more!
On some days there are 2x miles required on the same route on Qatar airways. Try skipping those days if flexible and try looking +/- 2 days to get this price
Have attached screenshot of MAY 2023 of BOM-IST/SAW &...
Hmm.. Strange.. QR AVIOS usually shows what is mentioned on the QR Calculator page.
Can you share any screenshot / Snap of what are the AVIOS showing up while booking?
Hey mate!
I guess the Qatar Avios numbers are somewhat misleading…
Qatar Q Calculator says:
BOM/DEL - IST Round trip:
50,000 AVIOS - Economy class
100,000 Avios - Business class
My pick: this is a good option!
Yes mate!
Well Are these mentioned Miles/Points Economy class award ticket or Business class award ticket?
If these are economy class, what was the approx price on all these airlines (cash/revenue ticket) and the what was the price of ticket of other flight option?
The reason to ask is...
Why air aisa to London? They don’t provide india-LHR options!
Air Asia big rewards ain’t that attractive at all (atleast for me) SQ is better option than AIR AISA any day be it award availability and loyalty program!
Agreed mate!
Yes! Turkish has a bad award availability and redemption website + high taxes & surcharge.
Star alliance on United is a much better option.
How much Qatar avios did you have while doing the search?
Well the account needs to have some miles even a min of 100 or even 1000 would be enough to view award availability with qatar airways!
If you don’t have account, I guess there were promotions where we get 2000 or 3000 Avios for free if...
