How to Earn ANA Mileage Club Miles<\/span><\/h2>\n
Earn miles through credit card spending<\/span><\/h3>\n
First, one of the most common questions when dealing with foreign frequent flyer programs is \u201chow do I get the required miles for an award?<\/em>\u201d First National Bank of Omaha offers a U.S.-based co-branded ANA credit card, the ANA Card U.S.A..<\/p>\n
Would we recommend it? Probably not. Although it offers perks such as 2x miles per $1 spent on ANA purchases and a fast track to Bronze elite status, it doesn't hold up compared to the other ways of earning ANA miles that we will cover below.<\/p>\n
That said, the card is available to you even without a credit history, and could work as an entry-level card for those looking to build their credit profile. As an added bonus, the card also offers free FICO\u00ae<\/sup> scores.<\/p>\n
