Need credit card or not for ANA check in?
Used United Airline Award miles to book an international flight from Seattle to Narita on ANA for my sister. I paid the taxes with my credit card. Does my sister need to show MY credit card I used to pay for the taxes at the check in counter?

It depends on what UA says, as you booked the ticket through them. In general, presentation of a credit card is not required for redemption flights for most airlines of which I am aware.

TG and JL, however, require the individual whose credit card was charged to be there and in possession of the CC. Interestingly though, only if you book the flights through them DIRECTLY. If you book via, say, Expedia, the requirement doesn't apply. Strange.
