GUIDE
How to understand ANA Mileage Club award change and cancellation fees
ANA Mileage Club is ANA's mileage programme. Its partner-airline pages are grouped under “Using Miles” and “Partner Airline Flight Awards”; the substantive tables on those pages set out mileage accrual rates by fare type and booking class [2] [3] [4] [5]. Each page links to the ANA Mileage Club Terms and Conditions [2] [3] [4] [5].
Facts checked: 18 October 2026
Key takeaways
- ANA Mileage Club's partner pages are filed under “Using Miles” and “Partner Airline Flight Awards”, and each carrier covered here has its own page [2] [3] [4] [5].
- The programme links its own Terms and Conditions from each partner page [2] [3] [4] [5].
- For a flight on a partner carrier, the booking class printed on the ticket is what the accrual tables use; the notes say accrual rates are applied by reference to the eligible booking class of the boarding date [2] [3] [4] [5].
- Partner airlines may change accrual rates and the booking classes eligible for accrual without notice, so a page's rates and eligible classes can change without notice [2] [3] [4] [5].
Which partner airline pages are covered here?
ANA Mileage Club sets out its partner relationships one carrier at a time. The partner pages below state, for each carrier, mileage accrual rates by fare type and booking class, and the date on which that information was current [2] [3] [4] [5].
Each page dates its tables, and the notes state that accrual rates are applied based on the eligible booking class of the boarding date [2] [3] [4] [5].
| Partner airline | Periods stated on the page | Information current as of |
|---|---|---|
| Shenzhen Airlines (ZH) | Business class boarding on or after 1 April 2019; premium economy and economy boarding on or after 29 October 2023, with earlier tables for boarding up to 1 April 2019 [2] | 16 October 2023 [2] |
| Virgin Atlantic (VS) | Business and economy boarding on or after 15 January 2019, with earlier tables for boarding up to 14 January 2019 [3] | 10 January 2019 [3] |
| Vietnam Airlines (VN) | Economy flights from 1 September 2018, with an earlier table for flights up to 31 August 2018 [4] | 28 October 2019 [4] |
| Virgin Australia (VA) | Business and economy boarding on or after 24 June 2026, with earlier tables for boarding up to 23 June 2026 [5] | 24 June 2026 [5] |
The Shenzhen Airlines page notes that a booking class not listed on it is not eligible for mileage accrual [2], and the Vietnam Airlines page applies the same logic to Vietnam Airlines-operated flights carrying a Vietnam Airlines flight number [4].
How is a partner airline sector treated for ANA Mileage Club accrual?
The booking class is printed on the ticket and identifies the class of service held on the reservation [2] [3] [5]. The partner tables use that printed class to set the accrual rate for a partner-operated flight [2] [3] [4] [5].
Where a codeshare flight is operated by an ANA partner airline, mileage accrual is based on the operating airline's booking class accrual rates; rates may differ and mileage may not be accrued at all [2] [3] [4] [5]. On Virgin Atlantic and Virgin Australia, ANA Premium Points and the various bonus miles normally earned on ANA Group flights cannot be accrued [3] [5].
When can partner airlines change their accrual rates?
ANA's partner pages state that partner airlines may change accrual rates and the booking classes eligible for accrual without notice [2] [3] [4] [5]. Each page also carries a currency date alongside its tables [2] [3] [4] [5]. Accrual on a partner-operated flight is applied by reference to the booking class of the boarding date, so a journey whose sectors board on different dates can earn at different rates [2] [3] [4] [5].
Exceptions and limits
- Route limits on Vietnam Airlines. For Vietnam Airlines-operated flights, accrual is limited to the codeshare-agreed routes listed on the page: Haneda–Hanoi; Narita–Hanoi, Narita–Ho Chi Minh City and Narita–Da Nang; Kansai–Hanoi, Kansai–Ho Chi Minh City and Kansai–Da Nang; Nagoya–Hanoi and Nagoya–Ho Chi Minh City; Fukuoka–Hanoi and Fukuoka–Ho Chi Minh City; Hanoi–Siem Reap and Ho Chi Minh City–Siem Reap; plus the listed Vietnam domestic sectors (Hanoi–Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi–Da Nang, Hanoi–Nha Trang, Da Nang–Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi–Da Lat, Ho Chi Minh City–Da Lat, Ho Chi Minh City–Hue and Ho Chi Minh City–Nha Trang) [4].
- Domestic exclusion on Virgin Atlantic. UK domestic flights are ineligible for mileage accrual [3].
- Booking classes outside the tables. The pages state that tickets reserved in booking classes not listed are not eligible for mileage accrual; on the Vietnam Airlines page this is stated for Vietnam Airlines-operated flights carrying a Vietnam Airlines flight number [2] [3] [4] [5].
- Codeshares operated by a partner. When a codeshare flight is operated by an ANA partner airline, mileage accrual is based on the operating airline's booking class accrual rates; rates may differ and mileage may not be accrued at all [2] [3] [4] [5].
- Bonus miles. ANA Premium Points and bonus miles normally earned on ANA Group flights cannot be accrued on Virgin Atlantic or Virgin Australia sectors [3] [5].
ANA links its Mileage Club Terms and Conditions from each partner page [2] [3] [4] [5].
Frequently asked questions

They are filed under “Using Miles” and “Partner Airline Flight Awards”, but their substantive tables set out mileage accrual rates by fare type and booking class for each partner carrier [2] [3] [4] [5].

How is a codeshare sector handled?
