Putting Skymiles # on Airfrance Award Ticket Alitalia Metal

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has specific experience changing FF# at the Kiosks to Delta on AF award ticket. I've read about this in various blogs but not sure what to expect when I show up at the Kiosk.

So to be clear I booked an Air France Award ticket FCO to JFK. Direct flight on Alitalia Metal.

Will I be able to edit the FF# at the Kiosk at check in? Should I try to do it earlier via the website?

Thanks,

Jack

I have never had a problem changing it on the AF website. Probably the easiest way and you will see right away if it sticks.

Why bother? Won't earn miles- and assuming you're in Magnifica class, you don't need Sky Priority benefits.

Not entirely correct - There are many times I earn KLM FB points on Delta biz award tickets! ^ (by putting in my FB number)

Good point. Although I do believe you earn "miles" toward Million Miler. But I could be wrong. Would not be the first time.

Unfortunately not. Million Miler miles are essentially MQMs.

Also works in reverse when on KL/AF biz award with DL FF#. Doesn't happen all the time, but once in a while you see it credited as MQMs and the bonus. I definitely do not call or ask why it happens obviously.

Figured out why i couldn't change the FF number

Thanks for the replies. I figured out my problem. I booked as an AF award ticket operated by Alitalia.

I couldn't seem to log in to Alitalia with the PRN But it worked using the ticket number.

Once on Alitalia the operating carrier's website I was able to change and include my Skymiles info. AF site would not let me change.
