Turkish allows you to hold an award for 3 days, which will allow you to transfer in miles after the award is on hold.

Can this be done online? How?

Read your emails carefully. Often one has that info.

Did you look when you log into BA and AA ?
Beyond that, I have no ideas.  I always see ticket numbers in the email.

Dan has mentioned a Virgin Atlantic companion discount a couple of times, but I cannot seem to find any information on it. the only thing I can find online is about the certificate they give cardholders. Does anyone know what the rules are for this discount, if I can book for two other people using this discount, and if really all I need to do is call?

Is there a thread on here explaining a little bit about American Airlines status and system wide upgrades? How they work, how to check availability, etc…

Try calling...
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I'm looking to book a domestic hidden city ticket that stops in JFK and final destination is in BDA (Bermuda), I want to get off at JFK.
I have a passport card with me, not the passport book. As per my research it seems that a passport card would only allow me to travel to Bermuda by land or sea and that I would not be able to fly there.
My question is as follows. I have heard that the only place that checks if you have a passport book is the last destination before leaving the country. So in that case would I be able to board this hidden city flight and get off at JFK? Or would they ask for passport book in the first leg of the journey as well.
TIA
