Pro:
1. OWE earned
2. Avois system and I can freely move to BA and IB to book award tickets from TYO to US operated by JAL on 360 days out. 75000 avois + 250 fee.

Con:
Useless milestone (Lounge access and free upgrade if operated by Finnair)


Any thought and advice?
Has the functionality to transfer Avios to Finnair been implemented? I'm always a little nervous about different IT programs talking to one another on the prescribed timeframe until there's proof it actually works.
