On the OW electronic timetable, if a flight is codeshared, i.e., operated by another airline, it will say so. Most N/S west coast N. America flights are operated by Alaska Airlines, some using AA flight numbers as well as their own. Those flights are not eligible on the OWEs because AS is not a member (yet ) of OW.


Thanks for all your help, we've still got 3 months left to plan the trip, it will probably take that length of time to understand all the ins and outs

I've noticed on some itineraries DFW-ANC-DFW or ORD-ANC-ORD yet on the OW electronic time table they both seem to be run by alaska so there not valid routes,

I think the American leg will have to go something like
MIA-YUL-DFW-YVR-DFW-LAX-AKL
that will be using up my 6 segments in NA would there be any way you could see of us including both ANC or HNL. apart from buying separate flights.
It may be cheaper for us to by flights from MIA-YUL or YVR - LAX to save segments? sorry to put this on you, but I've a bee in my bonnet with regards Alaska they've completely mucked up my plans. thanks M.
