I have enough miles for one-way business class to US (1 person) with American, United, and Alaska. Any suggestion on which airline to call, and which partner airlines that generally have the availability?

Thanks.

I'm probably stating the obvious, but have you verified that you won't need a visa in your new passport and that a one way ticket is sufficient with your travel documents for admission to the USA and also acceptable at all potential transfer points?
