credit flights to different programs
 
I have 5 QF flights coming.
Dec 20 Dec 21 Dec 22 and Dec 23 with 2 flights on Dec 23.

I want to credit the first 3 flights to Alaska and the 2 flights on Dec 23 to AA (I am short 700 EQD and the 2 flights on Dec23 is sufficient) to keep my AA emerald.

What is the best way? historically, claiming missing mileage on website would credit all flights to one program as it was done by ticket number.

Any suggestions?

Always risks. but I'd think safest way.

Put Alaskan number in booking.
After 3rd flight call up and ask for FF number for remaining two flights to be removed.
Hang up.
(Actually given the lengthy callwait times for non-QF status members maybe try at the airport, or lounge on arrival)
See if you can confirm this online, then re-enter online, or call again.

Check BP for the fourth fligh the next day
If its wrong - hit up a desk, and get it changed.

The routing is NRT MEL SYD TBU SYD AKL.

I probably will do it at SYD given the distance for the remaining sectors is low.

Thanks.

Who’s flying the Tongatapu segments? Just out of interest

Finnair manage booking often works---> https://www.finnair.com/int/gb/manage-booking-login
But a risk the change after the 3rd flight does not stick or credits incorrectly. Check on line and the boarding pass. Take screen shots

I always got the check-in person to enter the FF# manually. Mind you that was before the CEO decided to sack as many staff as possible so he could be the highest paid CEO in Australia, so who knows
