| | Flight Experience | ANA first class is arranged in a 1-2-1 cabin layout. Just be aware that there’s a new version with doors and an old version without doors. The new version is much nicer, but the older version still offers a massive, comfortable seat. | Plus, the crews are amazing and the inflight dining gets high marks. | | How To Search | Search with United: | Select Advanced search Choose to show price in miles Select Roundtrip or One-way Enter the origin & destination Select Nonstop only (if you don't need a connection) Select the number of passengers Select your dates or choose Flexible dates and choose a month Select Business Run the search
| Search with the program you want to use to book before you transfer points. | Once you find dates, run a search with the program you want to use to book. | Don’t transfer points until you’ve confirmed award space. | Call Virgin Atlantic (800-862-8621) to book or hold award space. You can transfer points once they’ve put together your ticket while on the phone as the transfer should be instant. | Happy booking! |
