<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Originally posted by LondonElite: Have you thought about ... UA's M+? -all fares count -miles don't expire -can upgrade using points</font> |
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Originally posted by small em: I'd sort of ruled out UA due to the risk of the airline expiring before the miles. Aeroplan looks promising. I guess the 50% rule on LH flights won't be an issue in practice. But is this really true (from https://www.aeroplan.com/en/collect/...idland.jsp)... "Not eligible: ... code-share flights operated by any bmi british midland code-share partner other than Air Canada". Does this mean UA-coded flights on BD metal don't count? [This message has been edited by small em (edited 10-15-2002).]</font> Spoke to AC about this and they admitted that the website was pretty poor. In the BD section, take out the words 'Air Canada' and replace with 'Star Alliance airlines'. So LH/UA/etc codeshares on BD do count |
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Originally posted by yogimh49: From my experience the first point is not entirely true: I couldn't put the miles of my flight from Europe to SYD on OS in booking class Q in M+ but had to use LH M&M instead. So I guess, UA does not honor all booking classes on all carriers... </font> |
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Originally posted by LondonElite: I'm very surprised to hear that UA does not accept OS Q miles...have you tried to take it up with them?</font> Anyway, the reply I got looked very decicive to me. That's probably why I just took it as is. See for yourself: Hello yogimh49, Thank you for contacting us. There are only certain classes of service that you can purchase and receive miles on Austrian Air: J, C, Y, D, M, H, B, W, V, G, or S. Any other classes are not eligible for Mileage Plus credit. I appreciate this opportunity to be of assistance and look forward to serving you again. |
