There’s no such thing as combining tickets. To the best of my knowledge at least…..

If you book with airlines that have an interline agreement, they should be able to check your bags through to final destination, if you provide a conf/ticket number.

great thanks!
Ask for a supervisor if the agent doesn't know how to check it through.

That's not enough for an upgrade or an award ticket... maybe use them in the shop https://www.shopandmiles.com ?
Don't expect good value but it's better than letting them expire.

I guess you will need to pay at least double for those routing, for a flexible ticket.
Do you have other options, e.g. Atlantic City, Tampa,... ?

how would other options help with flexibility to cancel?

Leaving from other airports or flying on different dates may be cheaper.

As far as I know, as long as you have a boarding pass and only luggage that you can take with you in the cabin, you can proceed through security.
If the airline has any questions for you, they can page you by the gate.

If I'm anticipating a missed connection and an overnight hotel stay, which credit card will give me the best coverage?

My better cards are:
Amex Gold
CSP
Chase United Quest
Cap1 VentureX

Thanks

Since no one knows, or is interested in sharing that information, Read the benefits page of each to see the terms of the coverage. Good luck

I booked my MIL on AA MIA-TLV and paid for a better seat.
Then I was thinking that I should have booked her in business. But it's very expensive with both cash and points.  Anything else I can do?

ANA awards are still only RT? I seem to remember reading somewhere that they began allowing OWs.
