Different FF numbers for segments on same PNR possible?
Hi,
Just wondering if it is possible to allocate different FF numbers for each segment on a single booking. For example, I want to get miles on VA for one leg and then UA on another. Can I assign that before hand or is it best to leave out any FF number and try to get the miles retroactivley using boarding passes?
Cheers.

Also when the BP are issued look very carefully at them and have them adjusted immediately if they are wrong.

I recently booked a ticket with mixed alliances (mostly *A but also OneWorld on the ticket) via Expedia and it let me choose the FF programme for each leg. My experience is that booking via Expedia offers most of the options which previously required use of a travel agent, e.g. seat requests (in cases where the airline doesn't normally offer them for online bookings).
