Is it possible to switch FF numbers on an award ticket? For instance, say that I want to redeem DL SkyMiles for an award ticket on CO (I guess for this example, assume both code and metal are CO). I book the ticket, and at this point I assume that my DL# is attached to the ticket. Is it possible to change after booking the FF# to my OnePass#? How about at check-in?
Yes, get the CO Record Locator (different from the DL record locator). Pull it up and co.com and make the change. You still won't get miles, but you'll still show Elite Access and your status on your BP if you're Elite.
