ANA Award Ticket - Non Family member
« on: January 22, 2014, 07:25:28 PM »
ANA offers the ability to register up to 10 "family-members" for whom the primary member can book award tickets for.  Does that mean I can't book a ticket for a friend? Has anyone had experience booking an ANA award ticket for a non-family member?

I ended up making an ANA account for my friend and transferring Amex points into his account, just to be safe...

I want to transfer to my account to book for my uncle,he has the same Last name as me.

It looks like I will have to tell them he is my brother.....

Do I need to be worried that they will see my fathers DOB and they will realize he can't be my brother?

My father is one of the registered users on my account.
