Thanks Mordy,

So the best is BA on US around 850 each? Can I get mileage on AA? How do I book these?

All the best!

Can I get mileage on AA?
yes, but if these are the only miles you're earning you're probably better off with BA or qantas who sell short haul awards by distance. BA's short hauls's are cheaper than Qantas, but Qantas is easier to combine 2 accts. (AA is impossible, BA is harder)

How do I book these?

I could not find them on BA or USAir.

I looked on DL (because I have Silver, can get free luggage and upgrade) but looks like flights there are 1050 nonstop or 80,000 miles, costing $880 with the transfer deal. What is the best deal? Is there a way to fly with less DL SkyMiles ?

Thanks everyone for your help!

Another question,

If I buy AA, I can get GC's here for around 80%. Is the same thing available for Delta?

Call a travel agent, US Airways, or American Airlines Reservations to book.
Here is the info you need to give them. Fare Basis Code for your Outbound Flight is VLWELFW1. Fare Basis Code for your Inbond Flight is SLE0F6R1.

This fare is also bookable on Orbitz.com but it's always best to purchase direct from the airline.

Why? So you can have the pleasure of paying them a phone booking fee?

I noticed online it looks now around 950 or so but on Kayak seems that it is on the upper end of the cycle, with tickets sold for 750 - 800 on recent dates. Should I wait? Thanks!!
