Anyway to check *A award seat availability?
Hi All

You used to be able to sign up for an ANA miles account and log in to check availability on star alliance airlines.

However they have disabled this feature if you aren't an 'active' member!

Wondering if anyone else out there knows of any other way to check for *A airline seat availability for reward bookings?

thanks in advance

AwardNexus.com

Free for a while since it's in its "beta stage". A FTer himself made this site and he appreciates feedback

Any way to 'test' and to know how accurate awardnexus is?

For ANA, yes. I checked availability on both systems and they were both showing seats for a specific flight I searched in the past. My FF isn't UA so I don't have to deal with StarNet blocking..

The underlying data source is the ANA site. If one is willing to concede that ANA is accurate then AwardNexus should be considered 100%.

It's just as accurate as the ANA *A search it's based on. The advantage of using AwardNexus vs ANA directly or any other tool is that it's free and it allows for multi-day multi-route searches.
