Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book your ANA award flights for travel to Japan in early September (specifically September 1-15) to take advantage of lower availability and fewer travelers, maximizing your chances of securing a seat.

Sweet Spot

You can fly from Tokyo to New York for 60,000 miles in business class on ANA, which typically costs around $4,000 in cash.

Routing Trick

Use the ANA Mileage Club round-trip award from the U.S. West Coast (e.g., Los Angeles) to Tokyo and then to Bangkok, which typically costs 60,000 miles instead of 70,000 miles for a direct Tokyo to Bangkok ticket, saving you 10,000 miles.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid flying with Spirit Airlines on routes to Las Vegas, as they frequently charge up to $100 in carry-on fees and $50 for checked baggage on top of their base fare.
