All Rights Reserved Tips for Availability Getting multiple business class seats on international flights can be very tough. According to Gary Leff, who books tons of these awards: • Anywhere - Brussels (Newark, JFK, Chicago, Washington Dulles on United and Brussels Airlines) • American’s Asia flights (especially in first class) • LAN’s South America routes from Miami • Asiana especially Seattle – Seoul • Virgin Australia Los Angeles – Brisbane • Good luck with 3 business class seats on Cathay booking 6+ months out • West Coast on Korean (via Ultimate Rewards) • Most Air France routes when using Air France KLM Flying Blue miles (transferrable instantly from Amex Membership Rewards, but you pay fuel surcharges) • Saudi Arabian (Delta partner, no fuel surcharges, and tons of business class space – and connections to places like India)
