TK website and call center do not recognize KSC as a valid airport. Every other *A carrier had saver J award availability for me EWR-WAW-KSC except TK.  >:(

Booked the long haul portion because I was stuck with 90k in TK and didnt want to pay for 1 what I could pay for 2 under the expiring award chart.

Booked UA SFO-MEL for 3/3 before the devaluation. 75k in J

I've been waiting for LAX-MEL to open up so I can switch.

My question is, should it open up, can I still call and pay just the change fee? Or will they now ask for the difference in miles to 140k?

TIA!
Still looking for a good MS method :)

I'd assume so.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Their award chart was too cheap.
