Hi all -
First post here. I have some AA miles that I would like to use to book first class from US to south asia for my parents mid next year. It would take 180k AA miles to redeem for 2 adults.
I can see the award availability now. But there is a degree of uncertainty to book travel this far out. Depending on the circumstances, the travel schedule (hence the dates) may change next year.
If I wait to book tickets until early January of next year, then AA miles may devalue and/or there won't be award seats left by then.
Worst case, should I go ahead and book award tickets now and pay change/cancellation fee, should that happen? or is there a better option?
Thoughts?
