Booked a trip to Melbourne during spring break via Delta, it’s a pity Virgin Australia isn’t on the list or at least I might be able to try a match or something

Sounds like revenue tickets only even though I see nothing in the terms specifically saying that, because it says you will get miles up to 5k minimum each way. Obviously awards earn nothing so best bet is a low cost international ticket, which isn’t hard with some 200 BE fares on AA etc.

Downside is you obviously have to put in your AS number to track, and for someone with elite status, like EXP on AA, you would want your AA number on the reservation not AS.

Now, if you could put your AS number, then print a boarding pass and change it back somehow then you’d have a boarding pass to submit for miles to AS…

Sounds awfully scammy.

Do you book directly with partner and credit miles to Alaska?

Do award flights count?

Flying F on the Emirates 380 to Saudi Arabia in March.

It’s very ambiguous. The fine print seems to suggest that it applies to all flights, including award flights. Though if you click into the details of each airline, it seems to suggest only cash flights booked with the partner and credited to Alaska.

If I understand the promotion correctly, it seems like this is really only valuable on the cheap Intl economy fares that only earn 25% or on really short flights – if my math is correct. But hey 10K on a RT that wouldn’t earn much is still a good promo.

How do they track this? I have a United award on Aer Lingus later in the year. Is this paid fares only or can include awards? Not much in terms to specify.
