1. I don't have any A3.
2. It's not that much better, if I transfered 120k MT for 50k A3 + The $50 it's (better but) not much better then 75k UA IMHO.
3. And THIS flight wouldn't have been bookable with A3

I didn't have A3 available either, this was for a friend
I got @1.8
Assuming you didn't get your miles from a MT package
UA sells for 1.3 ~975 +tax vs 805+tax  (and no close in fee if applicable)
only IN available different story lol same reason I'm constantly using UA over A3..

Reason 3 is the real reason, and I don't sell my miles generally.

They fly the 763 on the route year round. Worth the extra 7,500 BA IMO.

He was flying with 4 people and would have been in F alone.
He also wound up flying from PHL which could have been a 752.
