Cannot use Alaska Miles to upgrade on American or Hawaiian
We are trying to see if we can use upgrade mileage, the short answer is that it is both expensive in terms of mileage and very hard to do. On American, we can use Alaska miles, but they don’t let them use them for upgrades. AAdvantage Partners and Mileage Programs – Partner Details Between the…
