As far as I know, there are no direct flights between NYC and BUD (budapest).  Flew there in December and had to connect...
I mean with a stop

On all of them or you tried one? And a few times the connections flight will not be available so you will have to change that.

With awards for TLV-NY-TLV + extra leg I get errors like crazy online. Can these be booked over the phone with the same pricing? And only seems to work to certain regions, or again is that online only?

M&M has better access to LX seats than star. No indication that it will open to star.

I am trying to piece together a nyc-tyo-tlv-nyc itinerary. When doing this together for the individual segments as one-way I find availability. However when I put it all in the multiple city search, it errors out. What am I doing wrong? I was hoping to get to TLV while stopping in TYO for 5-6 days. I was hoping to score the TYO as the destination and TLV as a stopover. Any suggestions?

Would they accept TYO as the destination and TLV as a stopover? Should it be done by United miles or Singapore? There is only one stopover possible, correct?

If i were to book 4 saver award intl tickets + $200 in taxes/fees as a premier platinum member. Then i decide to cancel it before 21 days prior to the trip. Would i get refunded for the $200 in taxes/fees?

Can I transfer miles between spouses' accounts?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.
