Delta one way award tickets.......

[bangmai]

New system is up and running. I just got a one way from CNX to the US for 40K miles and 68 usd. 3:15 layover in Seoul, but I save 540 miles and a stop by not going thru BKK. Both segments on KAL...bring on the macadamias.....

$68 USD? About baht 2,200???

$60 sounds very correct given that an US inbound sector is assessed three federal government taxes alone - a US international arrivals tax (about $17.50), a US APHIS inspect fee ($5.00), and an Immigration inspection fee ($7.00)

... And I recall that Korea imposes a 10,000 (KWR) on connection tickets..

(With some exceptions for diplomatic and other special travel situations)

So when you add this all up, the $60 quote I strongly suspect is almost all, if not all, mandatory government/airport taxes and fees.

It's about time for Delta Sky Miles to match American and United's programs that have allowed one way award miles for several years. What took them so long to figure out that not everyone wants to book roundtrips or pay double miles to fly one way?

Nice. Congrats on the "early in the game" score!
