Looking to fly RT from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to Chengdu, China at end of December.

There are only two direct flights(little over 4 hr each way) on the dates I am looking at. Sichuan Air is around US$650 and Air China US$900.

These seems pretty high.

On another post, I was informed prices are lower for flights within China as travel dates get closer as one way flight from Shenzhen to Chengdu was over US$400.

Does this apply to international flights as well?

TIA

I do not trade very often but entered a buy limit order that did not get filled even as the price of MU went lower!

This went on for almost a minute and I had to refresh my screen few times to make sure.

Cancelled order and bought at market for a Lower entry price.

Is this normal?

First time seeing this as limit orders did not see such huge delay.

I have BOA PRE card. Am trying to book a RT ticket for international travel with points (20% discount with PRE) but calendar will not display anything past December 2026! Anyone else seeing this?

Is there an alternative website to do travel bookings for BOA?

TIA

I am using BOA banking app and wanted to take advantage of the 20% discount with points with my PRE card. Is there an alternative website to do travel bookings for BOA?

First time flying within China.
I need to get from Shenzhen to Chengdu (one way) and noticed the cost are around the same .

Economy flight: $379. 2hr 35 min
Train: Business class $340. 8 hrs.
Premium first class: $280

Given the time difference and cost, it makes more sense for me to fly.

$379 for a 2hr 35 min flight seems high. Is this because of the fuel shortage?
The trip is later in the year so not looking to book now.

Thank you

I have Bilt Obsedian with $100 hotel credits and $200 Bilt cash. I know hotel credits are only usable each half of year at $50 per reservation and I can also apply $50 Bilt cash per reservation.
I moved to Bilt 2.0 in February 2026 from Bilt 1.0 .

Question.
Do I have to book hotels and complete my stay between Jan-June and June-Dec? Can I apply these hotel credits(two nights per booking to meet requirements) for travel outside of these dates? Eg one booking in November 2026 and another in December 2026?

TIA
