I know when you try to book other ones, the site will refer you to their toll free number, however that doesn't work overseas.
Bottom line...is it possible to use award miles if say a person just wanted to go from place to place all over a specific country or continent? Is there a way to book with the alliance airlines.
I hope I made that clear.
On aa.com you can book awards not just on AA metal, but also BA, Air Berlin, Finnair, Qantas, Royal Jordanian, Alaska, Hawaiian, & US Airways.
For awards on any other of AA partner carriers, you have to call AA. I'd suggest looking up the local AA reservations number in China, or get a Skype account for cheap calls back to the USA.
