Mileage:
- 16,404 miles or 5.4 cents per mile. ANA is a member of the Star Alliance and United Partner. This fare earns 100% mileage for the transpacific segments and 50% for the segments between Japan and China. Crediting with United will be 15,074 miles or 5.9 cents per mile. This is still better than crediting to ANA directly which would result in only a 25% mileage credit.
