Help with Booking through Asia Miles
« on: December 29, 2015, 10:41:31 PM »
Does anyone here have experience booking through Asia Miles with partner airlines besides CX, BA, Dragonair, or Qantas? I've hit a brick wall and have no idea what to do. Want to check if they have award availability before I transfer points from MR but I'm finding it impossible to get through to a rep. Apparently they don't believe in pushing 0 for operator, and the only way to get through to someone is to put in my member number into automated service, but it keeps rejecting my number as invalid. Trying to finish up booking a trip so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

Don't take the amounts of miles needed for an itinerary for granted. Since Asia miles allows you to book a mixed cabin itinerary and it will be adjusted to the itinerary as a whole, and since you can put a stopover even on a one way ticket redemption...You got my points.
If you use this, make sure to use a 'fake account' so there's no claw back.

Is there anything I can do with 20K Asia Miles expiring soon if I have no future short-haul travel plan?
