Try mentioning next time if you have special requests or conditions, as people otherwise waste time in vain.

  Your best bet is with Travelers Choice or Global Travel, you most likely wont earn 100% of the miles or none at all. But you need those agents that sell group flights to get the cheapest flights

 just look at any of the Jewish newspapers after Pesach and Im sure they will start with their adds for Lag already

 But Im not so sure that the fares will be sub $1000 at least for the non-stops

You don't earn miles with group flights? Since when? Or do you mean because they book tickets with miles they bought from people?

 Alot of times the Airlines gives these Agents very low rates. A friend I sent to Global got an ElAl tkt for Pesach to TLV it was a few hundred cheaper then what ElAl themselves wanted but after I mentioned about not getting 100% of the miles called Global and was told with ElAl and his fare basis hed only earn 50% of the reg amount of pts.

 As for DL or CO you need to ask the agent what the fare basis is and then go check that carriers T&C to see if youd earn anything.. Yes both DL & CO have fares such as these where you wont earn even 1 eqm or 1 rdm

 Same with sites such as Orbitz where they mix fares at times I saw that Id earn miles only in 1 direction since the other direction had a fare basis that didnt earn anything. This was on Air Atalia and another time Czech Air. I simply got the fare basis off the orbitz site that someone showed me how to find it and then looked it up on DL and CO and both werent gonna give credit on 1 direction


 this has nothing to do with getting an award tkt from a broker

 as I said it varies on Carrier and fare basis so its a good idea to ask and make sure in my opinion if miles are important to a person. ElAl was 50% but next time maybe 100% or 0%.DL was 100% and next time can be 50% or 0%. when it comes to things like this in my opinion it pays to ask and be 100% sure then sorry later

Keep checking the websites direct.  I got tickets (in the past) for 950 continental less than 10 days before lag bomer.
