Unfortunately, I'm not competent to weigh in on that. You might consider asking a Moderator to move this thread to the Alaska Airlines forum, as the FTers who frequent that forum will probably know more.

I'm pretty sure that 40K AS miles for a one-way in Coach from IAH to OME is not the lowest redemption rate offered on that route, so not likely to be available to partners.

I do see scattered partner availability for ANC-OME in July. Maybe look at getting from IAH to ANC with cash or miles, and then use BAEC Avios for ANC-OME if that is more cost effective than a cash ticket between IAH and OME.

And a belated welcome to FlyerTalk!
