If this is an award ticket the OP is trying to get, it is almost an impossibility to get these tickets on some airlines, and my experience is that Delta is one of the airlines that dont honour what is on their award charts. I have been able to get award seats on other airlines, e.g. American, but never on Delta. Everytime I tried to book an award ticket on Delta, they quote twice the number of miles that their award charts say. So I looked at tickets for several months away and I still can't get an award ticket except that it may be available for travel 2 or 3 days per month. Howeve its a fact I am prepared to face and still travel on Delta but only when their route/fare suits me, and I don't expect any award ticket although I still put in my skymiles number when I fly Delta. I have concluded that Delta's sky miles is just a scam, and this may well be the type of thing the OP is experiencing with Cathay Pacific.
