AJK's Trip/Route Planning Thread

Option 2 sounds better to me, having flown neither product, plus it's one less stop.

[AJK]

Distractions... That doesn't apply to you

Then why are they charging me?

Yeah, leaning that way myself now. Though, among the reasons I'd choose option 1, is the last reason given above. I'm all about extracting max value, and this leaves some on the table. But, as I counseled someone recently, sometimes it is what it is. It's the flight getting me to where I need to be when I need to be there.

Which product have you tried more? Does that make a difference to you?

[AJK]

Flown LH many more times. Have only flown EK twice. Probably gonna just go with EK unless by some miracle TLV - FRA opens.

[Matovu]

What does have tons of SQ mean ?

Probable has tons of points by places that would transfer into SQ. Where as AS only transfers from SPG and BofA/AS got more strict lately on credit cards

Why not consider other options like: TLV-ATH-FRA-JFK?

Cabins to NYC are F1 or F0. They won't be opening for awards.

[Yehoshua]

So which option did you end up choosing?

[Emkay]

Incidentally:




 

Lol

[Emkay]

Both flights would require revenue flight from TLV-AMM on RJ at $150.

Umm, can you be my TA?

[a mirrer]

Option 1: AMM-FRA-BOS-NYC on LH F for 75K SQ + $230

Option 2: AMM-DXB-JFK on EK F for 90K AS + $100

Both flights would require revenue flight from TLV-AMM on RJ at $150.

i think option 2 because option 1 goes against your shitta of not paying fuel surcharges unless there is some mistake involved(unless there is one i didn't notice)

Good diyuk

My point of the question was; if you're choosing LH F with a connection in FRA why do you insist on AMM + revenue ticket? Why not try connecting thru other cities like: ATH, ZRH?
