They'll definitely waive the change fee for icn-sin. To add DPS, I don't know if that will happen
So if I add DPS via BKK or something like that I can keep on searching until i find something, and have the fee waived hmmm. That sounds like best option at this point, anyone disagree?

Wowza.
I let them go and found them again today. After such divine providence I cant let them go ;D
I have 4 seats held RT, but I may only use OW, and maybe I'll use CX for OW.

Why can you only use one way?

I can use both ways, but I'm have a hard time finding the intra Asia flights, so I'm thinking maybe I'll find something better with OW for one of the ways.

Mrs. AJK made my day today (like she does most days).

As we contemplate whether or not to go to TLV, she has begun looking into planning the vacation.

So she emails me:

Quote
I'm reading up on Israel activities etc. The DDF forum has 221 pages. That thread is so annoying. I read one interesting post, then it sparks some whole conversation about who is frummer and who eats the best hashgacha so skim, skim, skim...something interesting, then someone insults someone else's opinion and conflict, conflict, skim, skim, skim....it will take me forever to read through this.

ALOL.

Oiy. If only she knew.

Ergel, thanks for the idea. I now have jfk-icn-syd RT on hold until Monday. Are there any *A partners in AU that I may want to take advantage of as far as a stopver? I tried adding HNL on the return and the agent said that it isn't possible without explaining why. AJK, thanks for the OZ tip g-d willing I'll have a nice trip planned out with it, and sorry for hijacking your thread.

Also, does UA still allow a stopover on flights to/from HNL?
