    Hi everyone.

    I’d like to get a one way booked up UK-US asap. The inbound I want isn’t available yet as it’s over 355 days.

    If I book now and used reduced miles (the top option is 90k miles plus taxes, the option I would like is 72500 plus taxes) when I add in my return, will the agent reticket and reprice the whole ticket and allow me to select the maximum avios option which will be 180k plus taxes? Or will I have to stick to the avios level I have already selected?

    TIA

    No, you usually have to stick with your outbound choice for the inbound. They won’t reprice the whole ticket.

    If you booked the inbound with full Avios online, then called for a 50% refund, you might get away with it on the inbound?

    Ah ok. I’ll guess I’ll have to (not so) patiently wait for some miles to hit my account.
