*Miles shown are the actual miles flown for this segment. Fare class, Premier qualifying miles and other promotional bonuses are not included in the total miles shown. The award miles accrued on codeshare flights are based on the operating carrier and their equivalent fare class. This could result in differences between the purchased booking class and the booking class flown, which determines the number of base and Premier qualifying miles and Premier qualifying segments earned. MileagePlus award miles are not awarded for travel on airlines that are not MileagePlus partners. Miles indicated for non-partner flights or flight segments will not be awarded. MileagePlus award miles earned will vary depending on the Premier status of the customer.
