OW is 155K, RT is 280K.
Better off with KE I guess.

Any chance KE would book JFK-PVG-ICN-TLV-JFK on a ST award?

Would take no less than two awards, looks like three.

JFK-ICN; ICN-TLV; TLV-JFK.

You can do OW with MU and the return with MU/KE/CZ...

Or combine it with GA first if you can, their F product seems great.

No. And just so you know, JFK-PVG in J on MU is 100k for a OW plus about $200.

Interestingly, no YQ on KE. Still with 100k for a OW its not a big deal.... Rather book with with AZ, 90/95K ROUND TRIP!!

Sorry. Good to know for the future. It was the first time I saw that AF does not charge YQ on KE so I figured I'll share. But sorry for the inconvenience. I'll know for next time.

If I am on a US ticket JFK-HKG and a BA ticket HKG-SIN, with both legs being on CX, there shouldn't not be any issue with having my bags checked through to SIN correct?

Very tight connection in HKG that will be impossible to make if I don't have bags checked through.

Upon further review, the FT thread discussing this says Delta at some point reconsidered and didn't implement this http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/delta-air-lines-skymiles/1401060-new-baggage-rules-january-2013-postponed.html
