Unfortunately no, all connecting. No further stopovers, just layovers.

Does that effect the award pricing?
it shouldn't so long as it's pieced as a round trip,I booked jfk-tlv(layover cdg)  and tlv-fco-jfk for 50k

With a stopover in FCO, or just a connection?

Five day stopover

Right but direct Tlv - CDG , and direct CDG- JFK. Mine all have connections, I wouldn't think it would make a difference but not sure if D93 is implying that it would

Hello Guys - maybe someone can help! I looked at booking a FB award on AF and when I see the awards on the website it is 30K direct one way from CDG to TLV. But when I called they said it is 48K ONE WAY! Anyway, that is crazy the discrepancy is too large to make me want to transfer points from Amex to FB. What do u guys think ??

My other options are ElAl or just fly EasyJet

The new promo awards list is out for June bookings and travel in August (and for some routes also September), and these become bookable Wednesday. North America options are limited, but you can book discounted awards between Boston and anywhere Air France flies in Europe or between Montreal and anywhere KLM flies in Europe for 46,875 miles each way. There are other awards between Europe and the rest of the world that are discounted as well.
