book the best
trip to optimize your
awards points!?
The chart below shows the round -
trip mileage costs plus the round -
trip taxes / fees that are required when
booking awards with Flying Blue miles.
On an American Airlines flight, business class and first class
award bookings will include about $ 280 in taxes and fees for a round -
trip ticket.
(Note that one - way
award tickets require half the miles of a round -
trip booking.)
From Chicago or New York City (JFK), you will need 160,000 Avios to
book round -
trip first class
awards on Britsh Airways; from many other U.S. cities, you'll need 200,000 Avios.
As we discussed above,
booking round -
trip British Airways
awards to London from the United States will cost you a ton of cash.
Because Mileage Bank miles are a bit harder to earn, it could be easier for you to use American AAdvantage miles to
book off - peak economy class
award tickets for 45,000 miles round -
trip on flights operated by American Airlines.
Once you have earned the Travel Together Ticket, you have up to 2 years to use it for a round -
trip award booking originating in the United States.
Now that we have taken a look at some of the best ways to
book award flights, we need to discuss an important aspect of
booking trips to London: the Air Passenger Duty (APD) fee.
For instance, just because you fly 1,504 miles from San Francisco to Austin doesn't mean that you have now earned enough miles for another
trip; rather, the 1,500 - odd miles you just flew have earned you a mere fraction of what you'll need to
book an
award flight.
From many major West Coast airports, you can
book a nonstop economy class
award for 25,000 British Airways Avios round -
trip.
Another caveat: Korean Air only allows round -

This is one of the cheapest round -
trip awards to Hawaii, and you can even
book a one - way
award for half the cost at 12,000 miles.
Using British Airways Avios won't be a great way to
book this flight, but you can use 63,000 Japan Airlines Mileage Bank miles or 80,000 American AAdvantage miles for a round -
trip business class
award.
If you're hoping to
book a business class
award to Hawaii, we suggest using 45,000 Korean Air SkyPass miles (if you can
book a round -
trip ticket) to fly with Delta.
@DaninMCI — you'd be amazed at how many excited travelers want to
