Thanks! I'm away for a few days, but I'll post here when they've been updated

Thanks again for this message and for everybody else's continued alerts when something goes out of date. I've fixed several issues today, including this one. This site couldn't be possible without everybody's help and continued support! It really shows what's possible when frequent fliers around the world work together :)

On a side, I'd like to note that many booking classes are missing for flights of Swiss and Lufthansa into Aegean Miles+Bonus. Mostly those booking classes don't give miles into A3, but it would be good if at least it would be indicated there as 0% accrual.

I agree. The main reasons I originally left this off was because as we were entering data, it was impossible to know which booking classes actually existed for each airline. We could only go with what the sites told us and some specified that they credited 0% while others didn't say anything if they didn't earn anything. Now that we have a complete list, it makes sense to also display the programs that don't earn anything, both for reference and in case it has changed.

The question then becomes, should each of these 0%s have their own separate row? Or should I combine everything that earns 0% into a single line item to save some space? My fear is that it could get quite unwieldy (especially on the airline pages without a specific booking class) if every airline had a 0% line item. I'd be grateful to hear the communities' thoughts on this one!

I have continued to use this site, and wanted to give it another ^

Just found this site and I'm glad I did. Super helpful!

I added a list of all programs at the bottom of each screen so you can easily see all programs in one place.

Thanks @Madone59 @fly7b2!

Good new all, I [finally ;)] added revenue based earnings! UA and DL should both be showing now (any other ones you guys want to see?). Keep in mind, it will only show the base earnings (5 x $), but that's true for % flow as well.

I also added fixed miles and mileage minimums :D You should start noticing them pop up as I go through the existing charts.

New partnership: TAP and GOL

There's a new partnership, effective from tomorrow, which is between TAP Portugal and GOL Airlines.

The accrual table is available here:
https://www.smiles.com.br/tap-portugal

It's important to say that accrual is valid only from TAP to GOL and not the other way around. And while I think it's a waste to your travelled miles, in some specific cases it might be useful.

This is mainly for developers, but I finally published API docs today! You can find them here: http://www.wheretocredit.com/api

I'd love to hear if anybody decides to build anything with it! And as always, feel free to post or PM me questions

Hi and thanks for this great tool!

I thought that a table output like in the example would be neat:
Especially with a tool like MS Excel's "Conditional Format" (it might or might not be doable), wheretocredit would become much more useful, when deciding on a new FFP.
For example someone who is flying CX a lot, might also consider Finnair's FFP, which can be seen at first glance.

On a different note, I think it'd be a good idea to have a clickable "sort" button (like a mini-arrow as in wikipedia tables) in the headline of each column instead of the dropdown menu.

Very helpful tool! Thanks!

I like the idea, but it's not something we have plans to make at this time. PM me and I can try to get you the info you're looking for in a CSV.

This makes sense :) I've been meaning to update the design, so look for it in the near future

Is AS being purposely excluded from the API when querying for DL and AA flights? For example, this page returns 20 results:

http://www.wheretocredit.com/delta-air-lines/a

while an equivalent API call only returns 19 (AS is missing).

Awesome work IAkH, I wish I have discovered it earlier. We have been working on something too and there are some lapse. We are developing a mobile tool for this purpose right now, and hopefully we will be able to release it soon:p

We will definitely take an advantage of the api and it will save us some hassles with the ST data...

Some pages do not include the own airline's ffp.
For example QF does not include the QF ffp http://www.wheretocredit.com/qantas-airways
But AA does include the AA ffp http://www.wheretocredit.com/american-airlines
