Does anyone know why the CO booking tool calculates the following:
This makes no sense. The flight to IAH is 5013 miles and the flight from IAH to DEN is 876, so why are they quoting only 4824?
Does anybody know if I will actually earn the miles flown on this route?

You have a "through flight" which will only credit the actual flown miles between AMS-DEN which is 4812-ish...You can call Continental to split the segments and pay for the extra taxes to get miles for both segments.Originally Posted by texas gold

Possibly worth it, depending on the amount of taxes. Splitting IAH-ANC into IAH-SEA, SEA-ANC only cost me ~$3. Oh, then you have to factor in the time getting someone at Continental to actually do it and do it right. So maybe you're right...that hassle there is almost certainly a deal breaker.Originally Posted by IAH-OIL-TRASH

It is 1100 miles, not 300. The direct routing distance is 4824 and the connecting is 5100+875ish.Originally Posted by IAH-OIL-TRASH
