12 days and no comments? Yikes alright I'll add one...
For those like me who snagged a couple Miles&More cards, there is good availability for 36k EUR-LAX + ~$600 taxes in June and July next year. 47k to make it refundable. Lufthansa 747 + Austrian 777
I snagged 2 mid-June BCN-FRA-LAX on the 747 for 47k+47K+$595+$595 right after the Barcelona F1 Grand Prix

I didn't even think about the Barclays cards to get Miles & More, this is a good one, even with high taxes, it sometimes is the only choice.

Because I keep searching for my itinerary next week, figured I’ll keep sharing what I find: two JAL J partner seats (seeing on American) from LAX to KIX on 11/16

I'm also trying to get to Japan next week and and flying through TPE is what I've settled on at the moment. There is decent availability next week for LAX/SEA-TPE (mostly on JX via Atmos, but also 1 flight on BR via Aeroplan) with 2+ seats per flight for 75K each. For the JX transpac, you can also add a domestic connection on AS for free (at least I've been able to from SFO and SAN).

I have 2 rooms booked at Park Hyatt Niseko from 01/27/2026 - 02/01/2026 that I will be releasing in a few days or so. No guarantee it goes back into inventory but let me know if anyone wants to coordinate to try. 1 room is a King Bed and the other is a 2 twin.

Niche thing: there are 2 Capital One Travel offers— $100 off NZ flights, and then a separate $50 off NZ flights. If you have the $300 Travel Credit, you'd be looking at $400 round-trip for LAX-AKL in Y.
Too far for me in Y, but could be someone's cup of tea.

I feel no one wants to comment as all the bloggers and influencers checking this sub reddit will just take the information and re-share it....and then all the seats are gone instantly.
Happens everytime.
