EK F Award availability Wide Open JFK<>DXB
« on: November 24, 2014, 03:00:33 AM »
Checked random dates in Apr/May, almost every day has 2 seats available. Maybe this has to do with EK adding a third flight to JFK.

Probably does, so are you changing to EK or sticking with EY?

Well, I don't have EY either, I just figured out today that its a 9W aircraft  :(

I don't have AS miles as of now. Maybe Chase will take them as a new partner instead of KE  :P

Is going that way around the map more sensible than heading towards LA and going west?

I just booked my chauffeur from Monsey to JFK, but don't see an option for drop off in Amman, doesn't Ek offer pick up and drop off?

Lots of people would do it to get a great premium product. And then there is Sefira travel when you kinda have to do it.

So does that mean there are quicker ways to get to MLE just on lower products? ^What does that mean?
