Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

To maximize your chances of booking award flights with ANA, aim to book your tickets for peak travel times, such as the December holiday season, at least 10 to 12 months in advance, particularly for popular routes like Tokyo to Los Angeles or New York.

Sweet Spot

You can redeem 90,000 ANA Mileage Club miles for a round-trip business class flight from the U.S. West Coast to Tokyo, which typically costs around $4,000 in cash.

Routing Trick

You can save 12,000 miles by booking a round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to Tokyo (NRT) via Seattle (SEA) instead of a direct flight, as the routing through SEA allows you to book the flight for 75,000 miles instead of 87,000 miles for the direct route.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid flying on Spirit Airlines for routes within the U.S., as they often charge up to $100 for carry-on bags and $50 for checked luggage, significantly increasing overall travel costs.
