Ethiopian?
Over the weekend I saw a page on the US website listing the Star partners they're still working with. This page was not the PDF award travel chart that has partners listed on the top.
On this page (which I can't find now for the life of me) I remember see Ethiopian listed. I called US but they say Ethiopian is not a partner.
Does anyone know this page, or if Ethiopian is a partner?
Cheers

When will booking award seats with TK become available again?
Any idea when we can book with TK again? A supervisor I spoke to said that TK has still not loaded any award seats into the US Air system since they left Star Alliance, and they have been waiting months for them to do so.
I see availability using the KVS tool, but US Air can't book ANY Turkish seats at all.

Did anyone have any experience change and award that involve EVA Air? If I wanted to change on segment the return segment to a flight on Turkish Airlines which is still a partner, can I do this without cancelling the outbound on EVA Air? So in other words change I change on segment on an award without cancelling out the other.

It's doable. Your challenge will be to find an agent that does not want to cancel the whole booking and start from scratch. In such a case hang up politely and call again until you get an agent that knows how to do it.

will this still be the case where it involves a ticket reissue and one of the airlines is no longer a partner?

Yes. As long as all flight segments from the ex-partner still have the status OK and don't need to be changed... And US needs to still have a ticket agreement with this airline, what they likely keep at least 1 year over the cancellation of the partnership (if they don't keep it forever)... The issuing carrier is still responsable for their tickets in case of changes etc.
So theoretically and tecnically it has to work. I just see the problem by the agents, that they will refuse it, with the explication that BR is no longer a partner. But their segments won't be changed. They shall just do the same if any flights gets cancelled from one op airline. Then they also need to change this flight segment, rest keeps untouched... Guess this point is the challenging part

If wanting to get to Africa on US miles, I can see TK space from LHR to EBB via IST, but can't figure out how to either go C1-IST direct (no J space on any dates I've checked), or get to LHR on low J award. Any suggestions? Wanting to also use SA on a connection returning to C1, so have to stick to non-OW carriers.
