The e-ticket number displayed on the ANA site still has the ANA ticket number.

The upgrade certificate issued by United is on 016 ticket stock.

But, the mileage accrual page on United is now showing that leg as "not eligible to earn miles".

Don't worry about what the website says. It is eligible for credit under the original booking class (Z).

NH Star Wars kids lounge opens in HND.

I made my reservation using my middle name.
On the NH site, I can't log in unless I run my first and middle name together as one word.
Is this normal, or will I have issues with my passport?
On my passport, my first and middle name are separate.

A friendly reminder just in case anybody here is making a first trip to Australia: The Australian government requires citizens of a number of countries, including the US and Canada, to obtain an Electronic Travel Authority, a sort of online visa, before entering the country.

The Australian government website is here. We attended Oz Fest in May so we're already good to go.

Or if you have a travel agent friend with GDS access, they can do it for you for free. Many don't know that they can issue it for free, because it's not widely publicized.

No need to go through that FT donor and PM'ing BS. It's all for a good cause, but it's still BS.

Good point! ^ That's a great pay-it-forward FTer's service that we ourselves have used.

Can anyone suggest activities for our lengthy connection in NRT where we'll have the hours between 0500 - 2150 for exploration? First time to Tokyo, but both my partner and I have been to other areas of Japan.

the doraemon museum and the crayon shinchan museum is also around the suburbs- doraemon is not bad- talks about the creator's drawing career and his other works too, but the shinchan one.... is greatly for kids.

Is there luggage storage available at Haneda, or will I be pulling my rollaboard around all day?

I assume there is no problem with checking through a large suitcase with a 16h40m layover? That is to say, my checked suitcase won't show up on the conveyor belt at HND from my inbound Sydney flight due to the long layover?
