Yes already sent screen shot to support but I am sure others in the group must have faced this. If not please try to link turkish account with edge rewards and do see if it goest through. It surely can't be me alone!
The only problem is the payment of taxes. so If any one has booked it via United.com using miles and a domestic flight from Vistara in India. Please let me know as I have had been trying to do the same since last 12 hours.In this post I will explain how to find and book Air India award tickets with miles. Since Air India is a member of Star Alliance, we can book their flights using miles from other members. From the list of Magnus transfer partners, you can buy Air India tickets using United Airlines and Singapore Airline Miles. Turkish Airlines is also part of Star Alliance, but I couldn't find an option to book Air India flights with their miles.
For this post, I will take an example of booking a one-way ticket from Bangalore to Paris on April 13,2023.
Booking using Singapore Airlines:
1. Create a Krisflyer account. (KrisFlyer is the rewards programme of the Singapore Airlines.)
2. Once you log in, you'll see the option to search for flights. Here you need to select the "Redeem flights" option, and enter the rest of the details as usual.
3. On the next screen, select the option to see flights from Star Alliance partners. Once you select this option, it will show you the flights from Star Alliance partners you can book. In our case, it is showing an Air India flight from Bangalore to Paris and the miles requirement is 30,500 miles.
4. You can select the required flight and it will show you extra taxes to be paid along with the miles. You can go ahead and book the flight now.
Booking using United Airlines:
1. Create a united mileage plus account.
2. You will see the option to search for flights once you log in. Here you need to select the "Book with Miles" option, and enter the rest of the details as
usual.
3. On the next screen, you'll see all the available flights. The list also includes a list of all flights from partner airlines. Here you have options from multiple flights, and you can see a mixed itinerary of Vistara + Air India. You can select the required flight and book it.
Hope this post helps. Feedback is appreciated.
I am also struggling to make payment for taxes on United Airlines. It does not accept India credit cards. Tried US card also does not work. Cant figure out the exact issue.
Use a US address while making payment. Then Indian Credit Cards also work.
Change billing country to US and it will work. Rest of the details doesn't matter

You cannot transfer from M&S to other partners. You can only transfer from Axis ER to others. Only ITC and Accor are exceptions.

Emirates has the same.
Look for Star Alliance flights in "Miles transactions" after you login to the website. You can check there. You cannot transfer from Turkish to Krisflyer.
Through Turkish Miles & Smiles (It's flat 7500 miles for domestic AI flights)
I think there is some issue going with AI award ticket availability on Turkish (as well as on United). Let it resolve once. I have booked AI domestic flight using Turkish in Jan 2023.
