Also, regarding the family members, I see on the page you linked that you can book for up to "2nd degree family members". Uncle/nephew is ok?
Don't think they have a way of checking relationship if tou fly UA

They have sent me a email reminding me about expiring miles and a link to register to have them extended, I verified over the phone that I am registered. But my points don’t show in my account

I don't think you need to be concerned about that. It will be redeposited. (You can call them to make sure)

Is there an updated DDMS post explaining ANA point regime since this post in 2015? Is there a way to do OW's? There are Star Alliance flights that are not coming up. If I see availability on AC or United, will I be able to call up and get that ticket? Thanks.
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Just booked a UA flight using ANA miles. What is the best way to get my UA PNR?

Also, is a 70 min layover in IAD en route to FRA enough? Flying Polaris.

How does the ANA OJ trick work to book a one way? I can’t figure it out.

Say I want to book EWR-ZRH. Can I book EWR-ZRH and YUL-EWR? I’m getting an error when trying to book.

just tried from Mexico and Panama and it gave me the same error.

Am I doing something wrong or has this been closed?

let’s go DDF! We all love a good loophole around here. Can anyone confirm if this trick still works?

What's the "trick" part?

It prices as a one way?

will be significantly cheaper than a RT. It still counts as RT according to their rules, because you return to the same region from which you departed from.

You just throw away the second leg. Sort of like hidden city

How do you save money on that VS a RT? Shouldn't it be the same pricing? It's the same region/distance..
