I called ke to book JFK-ICN-TLV. The agent priced the award at 160k one way. She claimed that the flight distance is too long, for it to be booked as one ticket etc.  Does that make sense ? HUCA ?!
She is correct, you can not book JFK-ICN-TLV as one award when using KE miles.
AS can book as one award, but only as a RT and it's 100k/140k for y/j, they can not book KE F.

Go to koreanair.com and click on the “SkyPass” tab, then “Redeem Miles,” and then “Award Tickets,” you’ll be brought to the Korean Air award chart.

It can't be AS, since he said F, and AS doesn't book KE F.

Yes.
JFK-ICN in A380
ICN-TLV in B777/A330
Note: there's about 10 hours between flights.

Has anyone used Korean miles for Delta flight before? If so, I was wondering if you know what the baggage fees are for a coach ticket (i.e. if they are standard Delta fees, $25 for first, etc.)?

Also, has anyone used Korean miles for a Delta flight domestically and had an infant ("lap child") with them? Just wondering if you need to book that with the ticket when talking to Korean or if you wait until later and call Delta directly.

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

While not 100% sure, domestically, you should be able to add it at the airport. Internationally, do it with KE.

You would be able to add it at the airport. You can only add the infant for 10% of the mils if it's KE metal, not on partner airlines.

Does Korean allow you to route JFK-DXB-AMM on EK as one award for 210k RT in F, or needs to be 2 awards for 210k + 75k?
