Best Ways To Book
American: Great Rate, Tough To Earn
At 70,000 miles one-way, American AAdvantage provides an excellent way to book - especially if you want to connect to other parts of the Middle East, Indian Subcontinent, the Maldives, or Africa.
Please note that American can only book dates in August.
Flying Blue: Solid Rate, Easy To Earn, More Space
While the rate is higher at 85,000 miles, most people will find it significantly easier to earn Flying Blue miles thanks to a bunch of transfer partners. Unlike American, Flying Blue can book Etihad award space in September.
