Ive booked someone PVG-JFK for Oct 30, any idea if they will have the new product?

Very unlikely.

Sadly, with "only" two weeks, I just don't see a way to incorporate two destinations as far flung as MLE and AKL. Not without basically eating up like 4 or 5 days or travel time. Especially if I'd feel :obligated: to fly EY again from MLE-AUH-SYD (the stop in AUH being very inconvenient schedule-wise).

Alas, if I'm compelled to pick, it seems the better money is on AKL.

The Conrad MLE will have to wait, it seems.

Confession:

Award searching/trip planning for me is like a crawling down a black rabbit hole.

I start, get engrossed, look up after what I think is a half hour, and find out several hours have gone by...  :o

Am I alone?

Poll... green or red?



Red =
--TG F + TG F + LA J 
--40K UA + 20K BA + $85
--Travel time of 33 hours including two overnights.

Green =
--CX Y + SQ R
--10K BA + $35 + ~64K SQ + $200
--Travel time of 17 hours and no overnights.

Wow, am I really looking forward to redeeming for First on a SkyTeam carrier?

(No, I've never been particularly excited about KE...)

Suite with doors + double bed + pretty good availability? Yes, please.

Any way to book a one-way?
Tried to play around on their website, but my goodness it makes El Al's look state of the art.
