Booking business class flights directly Seoul is not easy, since there are no direct transfer partners for any major travel credit card points. In this video, we'll discuss a workaround for booking with Asiana Airlines and I'll walk you through how to find award space with both free and paid tools. Stay tuned for my final thoughts!

In September I’m going to Japan and South Korea so what I did was book a rewards flight from Tokyo to Seoul via Delta operated by Korean Air on Business class for only 15k points. I used my Amex card for that. So if you’re doing the same route I highly recommend doing that!

It’s a 1-2 hour flight and the cash cost for economy should be $100. Why you waste points on that.

Korean Air seems nearly impossible to book for. I’ve tried since my parents prefer them much more over Asiana, but they seem to never really provide award space with partners. If you have any luck though, that would be interesting to see

Great concise breakdown Max! OZ seems to have really scattered availability around, but unfortunately most if not all are for 1 seat only... If only there were more options! In terms of booking, would the best way almost always be Aeroplan given the points required? And what about using ANA, or do they not see OZ partner space?
@MaxMilesPoints
@MaxMilesPoints 6 месяцев назад
Ana sees OZ award space but you need to find round trip award space. As of yesterday they released award space from LAX to ICN with up to 8 seats for October 2024

great video. but Asiana does not fly into Las Vegas? they used to fly into Chicago, but I guess that's gone. They do fly into Honolulu. Also, Air Canada and Singapore are both transfer partners for Amex and CapOne as well, which makes it easier to earn necessary miles.

@MaxMilesPoints
@MaxMilesPoints 6 месяцев назад
The do similar things but different. Seats.aero finds the award space and is using cached/scrapped data from a few airlines point.me is running the real time award searches on 33 different airlines for example if I search for a flight on Seats.aero it's pulling data from 3 star alliance ariline. Whereas Point.me is searching around 6 star alliance airlines and running the real-time award availability. I like to use Point.me as my shopping tool. Find the saver award space on Seats.aero and then use Point.me to shop the award space around to see what other airlines are charging for the same flight so I don't have to go to each individual airline's website and search
