I am short of a couple of thousand miles in the Miles and Bonus program to get an upgrade to Gold. Can i transfer the required miles from Royal Orchid in order to get the needed upgradations or do i need to wait until i complete my next flight..

You can't transfer between programs. So you will have too wait to your next flight.

I am only interested in Accessoing Lounges even with Economy and gathering as many Miles as possible to get free tickets/upgrades for me & gfriend.

I have now 250K miles on the M&M card, I if swtich now to A3 M&B, what would be the best thing to do? Credit to the old M&M LH card and than Benefit to the new M&B A3 card?

Thank you

Looking at availability for my possible first time award flight using A3 miles.

Checked ANA, i used the tool before before and the tool shows either "ok" "-" or "x" sometimes the select button above the "ok" is highlighted.

I always thought that as long as the sector showed "ok" then I would be able to book it however Aegean does not see the seat. TG F.

Am I not getting it or is "ok" on ANA actually not bookable as an award unless the select button is highlighted?

(I probably should have posted this in the newbie zine, my appologies).

Wondering...
I have a Flight coming up on US Airways in R class (lowest paid fare class) at the time of booking, R class still appeared in the 100% earnings field in Aegeans earning table for US, but was removed recently.
I wanna try crediting the miles of that upcoming flight to Aegean for the possibility that it will earn mileage, am I risking losing everything? Meaning, if i give my Aegean ff # and don't get any mileage credit, can i then try to claim those miles with a diffent *A partner given that I did not get credit for it yet or does my try for Aegean miles ( in the event r class will not give me mileage there) kill my chance of receiving mileage credit for this flight with a different partner that normally would give for this fare class ( like united) ?
Any feedback is appreciated.
Thanks.

Quick Q: is the mileage earning minimum per segment flown as with united?
i.e. EWR-IAD-SFO-IAD-EWR would earn 4xMinimum or flown miles, whichever is higher?

Yes, that is my experience. Last year I flew IND-IAH-LIT and received 845 tier miles for IND-IAH and 500 tier miles for IAH-LIT

BThumme, thanks a lot

There are clearly some sweet spots / redemptions routes, especially thanks to the very large definition of the Far East region, like Seoul to Bali one way in C for 21000 miles...
