Booking Los Angeles–Hanoi with points starts with the cabin, then the program. The cheapest economy seat connects once, and with no nonstop in the data, extra points can buy a better connection but not a direct flight. The economy floor adds about $23 in taxes and fees, below the route's typical economy taxes. The middle step, premium economy, costs about 1.5 times economy; business costs about 2.3 times. Hold off on converting flexible points until the seat is confirmed bookable; there's no undoing a transfer.
American AAdvantage takes economy at 37,500 points. Alaska Atmos Rewards is cheapest in premium economy at 55,000 points. Air Canada Aeroplan wins business class at 87,500 points. Alaska Atmos Rewards lists first class from 200,000 points, but the fare connects, which usually means first on one leg only; read every segment. Among the remaining eight programs, United MileagePlus, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, and Avianca LifeMiles are good places to cross-check.
No airline shows nonstop award space between Los Angeles and Hanoi in the data. On points, this is a connecting trip. In all, 35 airlines show award inventory on the route.
