Original routing credit on A3

I had a misconnect in ICN to an OZ flight and was rebooked on KE (*A alternatives were too late in the day). What's A3's policy on original routing credit?

In my experience, you have to talk to the operating carrier of fhe missed flight - or their mileage program.

You need to contact OZ for any ORC... It is possible, just received 5000mi from LX customer service credited to my M&B account

In my experience, it is not too difficult to get compensatory award miles. The difficulty is in also getting status miles which only A3 can award. What were these 5,000 miles?

Thanks for the replies guys. Should I call OZ straight away and ask for miles or explain the situation to A3 first?

And yes, Tier miles are of the utmost importance as we begin our 24000-mile-long hedonic treadmill once again for 2017.

Hedonic? You're calling sitting in a plane for that long hedonic? Sorry to say, but you seem to like kinky sex!

Anyone know what Aegean's policy is for original routing when flying on their own metal and missed connections ?

Has anyone had any recent experiences with claiming original routing credit? I had a flight on CA, but was cancelled last minute so was put on a CZ flight a couple of hours later. I called Aegean twice but they both said firmly that "because you were put on a non *A flight, you can't claim the miles".

This seems contrary to what I've been reading here...
