Does anyone still bother with these promos ?.
Don't get me wrong, I still love the no fuel surcharge part and that can save a bunch of $$$, but one really needs to do a bit of math and analysis if one wants to get good value out of it. So for now we are looking for ways to burn instead of hording more miles.

135% Promo Active [POSSIBLY 145%]
https://www.lifemiles.com/eng/tra/pr....aspx?D=TTO221
went live today.
There is another site that went live to give you another 10% -- though it was only registered yesterday so caution should be exercised:

Also, the second promo is only valid "today." I would assume that means midnight PDT.Last edited by HUGE AL; 9 September 2015, 07:08 AM.HUGE AL

Still trying to offload a nice amount of miles or a decent redemption. Still got enough validity for 2+ years. Not that easy these days even to get good business class seats. Additionally, the strong US$ vs. S$ doesn't help to make this very attractive if you are SIN based in my book. YMMV.

You can check at classic.checkmytrip.com if there is a ticket number.

Aiyoh if not ticketed yet then cannot lah . In all earnest, I had this before a few times with LM redemptions that seat assignment via SQ web site (didn't try the app) did not work. Key is to have the itinerary ticketed and then it should work just fine.
BTW, slightly OT but to contrast the LM booking experience, I recently redeemed some of my hard earned A3 miles. (yes - bum in seat) While A3 does not have a way to check *A award availability online and the online form for submission is a bit of a joke (not even the desired cabin can be indicated), I found calling the contact center rather pleasant dare I say.
I did a SIN-NRT, 2 pax, NH846 Biz and another NRT-SIN, 2 pax, NH801 Biz redemption (both flights operated by a/c with the fully flat Business Staggered Seat) and each call was picked up within 3 rings after selecting the M+B option which is unheard off these days. English was very good with the first agent and quite passable with the second (just a heavier accent) and my reservations were done and dusted in under 10mins incl. taking CC payment. E-tickets issued and emails in my email inbox within 5mins I kid you not. Both agents were polite, accurate and the second one even thanked me for my time and using A3 - I was in shock .
All that for 84K miles total and 220 Euro in tax, YQ and booking fees (4 x 20 Euro) for 2 pax RT SIN-NRT-SIN in J and I was quite pleased. BTW, from what I have found, if LM with its very spotty availability can see the seats you want then A3 also seems to be able to see and grab them. Sorry for the short OT excursion.

Hmm.. Still no go. App says server problems. New website says it was issued by a partner airline and I need to get in touch with them or the source of the booking. Come to think of it, I think I was able to do it on the old website but I guess there's no way of going back now.
Definitely ticketed though as I received the emails from Avianca and can see the ticket numbers on checkmytrip.com
