One Mile At A Time: "At the moment, saver level award availability across the Pacific is more limited than ever before, with one exception. Specifically, EVA Air has good business class award availability, but only if you book through the carrier’s own Infinity MileageLands program."
"The good news is that these miles are potentially easy to come by. The bad news is that the process of booking through Infinity MileageLands sometimes leaves a bit to be desired."
Points Wire Note:
Only Citi ThankYou Points transfer to EVA Air at a 1:1 ratio. Capital One's transfer ratio is a poor 1:0.75. Yet another reason reminder that points diversification is key and that the Citi Premier is a sleeper card.
EVA has often released an extra business class award seat to its own members. It's unfortunate to see almost all award space restricted to EVA, but it's nice to see multiple seats.
