Transferring miles from Chase UR was instantaneous. Called back, VS agent ticketed immediately and gave me ANA booking reference. Logged on to ANA's website and selected seats.
Entire process took one hour.
I'm looking to book the same flight in Sept. Did you search UA or Copa for availability? I haven't been able to find any available seats for the ANA flight from ORD-NRT (HND also) on Copa but it shows availability on UA's site. Also, any tips on how to ask for award booking? I've tried calling a couple times and the CSR that I spoke to don't seem to think that it is possible to book.
Thanks!
