I just tried to book a flight on the web, and it allows you to enter a FF number, but only for BD, LH and SK. Why just these? I use UA, but even the other Euro Star members are excluded.

At a guess, because BD, LH and SK use the same booking system.<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Originally posted by stimpy:

This is already an improvement. Back in spring 2003 (April, methinks) I booked a BMI r/t flight and it would only accept the BMI Diamond Club number. Now at least EuroBonus (which I'm using) is supported.
This lead to a funny confusion about a checkin agent in Dublin being "absolutely positive that your number is in the system". Which it of course wasn't and I ended up having to send in the stubs for mileage claim.
