Well that got me there indirectly.Said checkin not open.:eek:
And a button for go to seat selection-but that said sign in for seat selection.
So signed up for the OZ FF program and now all my bookings are there.

Once I had my bookings I could select seats on line.
Message-if you have an award booking on OZ from any other program you need to have an OZ account to access.

weird. I just tried my booking and can choose seat without having to have an account. Not sure if it's because my flight is next month.
 
I find the Oz website / mobile phone app so buggy and unreliable (sometimes it works, sometimes not) that I always just ring the Asiana office in Sydney for seat requests :)
 
Continuing my newbie experience.

Have successfully redeemed an Asiana flight about 3 days ago :), got confirmation e-mail, with a PNR from Lifemiles (ending in 'FU' - is that an omen? ), but no 'e-ticket' from them.

Logged into Asiana, found reservation, generated Asiana e-ticket, selected seat, all looks OK.

Is that how Lifemiles usually works - you have to go into the redeemed airline to get the e-ticket?

It seems to depend. If you do the screenshot method they always send you an e-ticket receipt. Quite often with a completely on-line redepmtion they don't. You can email support and ask them for a copy of the e-ticket.

I did the same as you the other day and contacted the operating airline as I needed the e-ticket number urgently. They generated the e-ticket from their end and emailed it to me (and I got a copy from LM a couple hours later).
 
I did a search last night and was surprised to see the old search results interface come up!

Was momentarily excited, but then noticed the redemption levels were higher too!

I was looking at HKE-TPE.

Current interface is 8k economy / 15k business
Old interface was showing 15k economy / 22.5k business

All subsequent searches brought up the current interface. I can't recall, were Asia redemptions in the same zone once higher than they are now? Or is there a devaluation in the works!??

The 15/22.5 for North Asia->North Asia was always what I recall. Perhaps there was a special discount for the lower levels you saw? They have them from time to time on select routes.

They do list a promo of 30k roundtrip on Asia 1 - Asia 1...so that would explain 15k, but the economy promo is listed at 20k...whereas it prices at 8k both directions, so not sure!
