I see about the benefits of BMI now, but not having the miles with the airline I am flying with can cause problems no?
For instance, I am going to JFK in UCS on Wednesday, there are no reward seats available, but calling the FC line has got me them by asking revenue management to release one for me. I know this is also possible with BA but not had the need for this as yet. If I need such a 'favour' from a *A airline or VS, would they be as willing if its for a person not enrolled on their own FFP?
Also, for all VS and *A bookings with BMI miles, do you have to call them or do it online? (I know I'm asking this in the wrong forum - but I've come to trust you guys with stuff like this!!

)
So, all votes go to the BMI card then? Also run by MBNA right?
