I am trying to book a business class ticket JFk to Tel aviv. The return flight for January 9 or January 16 both show 50,000 points and $59.30, which should be a direct Delta flight. When I choose either of those dates it changes the options for only stopovers for minimum $262. Anyone ever have these problems with KLM website? I tried calling them, but waited on hold for too long.

typical... happens all the time.
that means their not there and it can be theyll appear or not!

Does anybody know if you must book a round trip ticket?

I try selecting 1 way, and when I go to the check out page they double the miles on me.

Thanks

so im trying to make a a RT to israel witha a stopover on the way back for a few days in London. as i understood that there is allowed 1 free stopover . Online it doesnt let me do it. so yesterday i called and was on the phone for 45 min and the agent didnt have the first clue what he was doing. he said im allowed to have a stopover but he didnt know how to make it. then we got disconnected.

i called back today, and the lady was even worse! she said that i cant make a stopover in London because im already stopping over in TLV. i told her that its not a stopover and its my destination. she was all confused, then she said im allowed to but she couldnt figure out how to do online, and said i have to make 3 tickets!
so im in middle of working it out with her, and she starts making like she cant hear me. i had full bars. and shes like "hello, hello, oh due to bad cinnection this call will be ended. have a great day"!!!

have in mind it takes like 20 minutes, at least, to get through to a rep.

On that note, does anyone know how to do it onlline?

Maybe you're trying to book a non-saver seat? FB does allow one-ways.

If you don't have status, what will it help you if someone tells you it's available?

The only difference between elite and non elite, is that elite can book Business Flex awards, for 160k JFK TLV one way.

Likely it will, but when, that's anyone's guess.
