kimanjo Posted May 26, 2012 #1 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I know that if you use "Choice Air" to book your flights on your Azamara cruise, you do indeed get FF miles if you are on one of your FF airlines. Choice Air is really just a TA booking air for you. I have found my flights, and called them, and then they just booked the flights I found. Is this true with Oceania as well? Can I give them my preferred flights? Even with an air deviation fee? How agreeable (able) are they for "custom" requests? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! Is Choice air your TA that books the flights or the cruise line? Getting FF miles with Oceania air is a mixed bag ...some airlines will give them to you others do not If it is important to you take the air credit & book your own flights ;) There are several threads on the topic as well as on how the deviation works with Oceania there is a search feature top right Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PaulMCO Posted May 27, 2012 #3 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Choice air is the booking company for RCL-Azmara-Celebrity and is owned by the parent. For most American run flights (UA,DL, AA) you will get your FF miles. It is when Oceania uses a foreign flag carrier that the issue occurs as they have the FF mileage ties to fare class and Oceania will typically book you on a V or lower fare which many times does not qualify. As Lyn pointed out do a deviation this way for a small fee you can typically get what you want without any other charges (other than the deviation fee). YOU NEED TO DO THIS EARLY.... On Oceania you can do this as early as 270 days before your cruise. If you booked with a TA contact them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZZROX Posted May 27, 2012 #4 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I'm using Choice Air on my upcoming cruise. I called Delta myself. The rep added my FF # w/o any problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
