As someone who has an idea about transfer partners.
There is a huge difference between being able to book a flight on a random day from a random place to a random destination and just choose to pay with miles like I can do on any random Delta domestic flight for 1.3 - 1.5 cpp and having to deal with partners and waiting for award flights to open up and then only on certain days and from certain cities.
- CobaltFire 4y agoThis was an arbitrary date and the transfer took less than 30 minutes. It was my first time using it and it was about as painless as I could have hoped for. I will say that we mostly only fly to a couple places and we mostly fly ANA, so we are an edge case.
- scarface74 4y agoOkay, so you’re actually using Ana to book flights directly instead of trying to use ANA to book flights on other airlines in the same alliance - in ANAs case Star Alliance. In that case, I take back everything I stand corrected.
- CobaltFire 4y agoYeah, I can't imagine the headache to do THAT. The ANA flights in these cases were Star Alliance operated long haul legs paired with shorter ANA operated legs, and we got to see both the older and newer business class for Delta (typical for most routes; we aren't where ANA runs their specific long haul). Newer is MUCH nicer.
