I'm looking for honeymoon spots for early-mid November and Bora Bora/Tahiti came up pretty high on my search. We were thinking of going to Madagascar and/or Seychelles but the flights there were too long for a week-long trip.

Anyway, we wanted to get there on *A but United.com doesn't show anything, is there a way to get there on United or *A? Would highly prefer it either to earn miles and/or use upgrade certs. Thanks!
The *A is very weak in the south Pacific... UA does not fly there on its own metal and other options would require you to fly to Auckland first. It's probably not a realistic option if you want to upgrade or use miles. However.. there are tons of beautiful tiny islands in Micronesia where UA does fly out of its hub in Guam. You might check out those options instead.
