Menu link Flight award chart for oneworld ® and partner airlines Okay, I'm asking this question here because dealing with both United (I'm Premier Executive) and Air New Zealand on this question has been murky at best.Okay, update...I think I found an answer, although I'm still hoping I can get some miles out of the LAX-PPT trip (the SFO-LAX portions are thru United, which by the way, is Regent Travel set up, not mine):( (( I know...sounds like it won't work...I think the agreement with Air Tahiti Nui and Air New Zealand is very recent.. but I'll continue to ask with both airlines...guess it doesn't hurt to ask and I'll report back.A big part of what determines whether or not you can get credit for LAX-PPT-LAX flights is whether Regent put you on the flight using a Air Tahiti flight number or a Air NewZealand flight number. I did check on FT AS board. Too bad, since I have some miles with NW, and would love to accrue more if I return to Tahiti.Okay, I was thinking, "what can I do with AAAdvantage", since I live in Canada. Oh well, I guess I'll have to join AAdvantage before our Tahiti trip next year.That's good to know. The first is with American Airlines, which charges 40,000 AAdvantage miles each way in economy, 65,000 miles in premium economy and 80,000 in business class.
