In looking for award seats on a non-UA *A affiliate (where I have UA miles), should I search for inventory on the specific affiliate, on UA, or on the *A option?
Also, when I create an alert, should it be for the affiliate, UA, or *A option?
Thanks.
Welcome to ExpertFlyer
747FC. You can search for either the operating carrier or "Star Alliance". Searching for United will just return UA flights. You create an alert for the operating carrier.
