Looks like American isn't going down, so I would like to use some frequent flyer miles; but seems like you end up spending 60-70K miles for every trip.
Has anyone here been able to book an international trip using frequent flyer miles at the coach level using the minimum miles? I have tried booking using only 20K miles off-peak with American which is the lowest they supposedly offer, and what I get are a few trips going at 20K but a return cost of 30K or 60 miles. You can't win it seems.
The customer service gal did spill that the airlines try and sell these seats so offer few. I wonder if they offer ANY seats at the off-peak 20K one way level with a 20K round trip cost on international flights? Anyone here have any luck?
