a lot :) traveling with little kids (ideal) is tough, but need to be able to afford it too
Personally, although the fb promo is great, there is a stopover and fuel surcharge. Flying with kids, I'd rather take the direct flight, no yq(fuel sc) and pay 25k points each way. Still an amazing value for direct to Israel.

I never managed to book on the flying blue website. I Always get a message telling me to call an agent. sometimes the site creates a reservation withou my knowledge and tells me it can't book it and I should call and then when I call they tell me there is a reservation in the system. 
Btw I was never charged an over the phone service fee because I told them the site told me to call.

What time do the promo awards end on the last day?  You'd think at least till 12AM European time but it's dead as of an hour ago (NYC-Europe at 25k)

So the January awards are out, it looks like 31,250 ow or 62,500 rt for yyz-europe in business.

1) I can do YYZ-CDG-TLV for same miles right?
2) Can I fly from NYC-YYZ on BA and then do YYZ-CDG-TLV-NYC for 62,500 or is that not allowed because it's an open jaw at the end?

If I'm flying NYC-yyz in AA J and connecting for yyz-cdg-tlv in AF J how long do I need to give myself at yyz airport? I have bags.

Ugh. After a bit of playing around and research, I am assuming this is impossible and I'm forgetting about CDG for now. If I can't stay there for 2 days I'd rather just go directly to Israel. I'll use the points i transferred to AF to book a direct delta flight.
