AS implimented BA's fuel surcharge in December- so expect to pay a little extra with that...
AS does have a wide variety of domestic and international partners ranging from the aforementioned BA to QF, CX, KE, AF, KL, and they are even courting EK right now
I really need to read up more before I post these queries.
I can't even find any route for redemption with Amex MR for AS.
I mixed up Horizon Air for Hawaiian Air
The options are really Aeroplan / Continental / ANA / SQ for *A
Mexicana / Iberia for OW
Aeromexico / Delta / Flying Blue for ST
Southwest / Air Tran / Jet Blue / Hawaiian / Frontier for local.
Mille Miglia is not good as Alitalia is in trouble.
Similarly for Frontier, but I have used up a few already.
Hawaiian can get awards on ST mainly,
may be better to wait for DL partner promos.
I have a M miles on DL after the merger with NW
Flying Blue awards are more expensive than DL on ST.
Jet Blue ?will be taken over by LH which bought a stake in it.
I am not sure about the non-US airlines and
the ease of redemption on partners.
There is no way to get BA or AA miles, which I lack the most
Has anyone experience with Mexicana or Iberia?
Am I right in thinking Aeroplan or Continental and just go with either?
