Hi FB-ers
Is there anybody that can tell me whether flights on U6 metal (OK-codeshare) earn FB points at all?
Cheers

As U6 is not a Skyteam airline you will not get any miles.
The general rules are as follows:
For getting award miles, a flight must be
- AF or KL coded, or
- Skyteam-coded and -operated, or
- coded and operated by a FlyingBlue partner.
For getting level miles, a flight must be
- AF or KL coded, or
- Skyteam-coded and operated.
(There might be additional options for getting miles if another airline that has FlyingBlue as its FFP is involved, but I never fly with them, so I don't know the rules that might apply here.)
Moreover there are minor restrictions on earning miles with particular airlines that can be found on the airline partner webpages of FlyingBlue.

Hmm, I simply wasn't sure because it is Skyteam-coded (OK) but not operated by them.
It's a bit of an odd one anyways. The itinerary concerned is AMS-PRG-SVX, I'm assuming FB miles will only be credited for the AMS-PRG leg then.

Where did you get your ticket from? Was it directly from a ST airline?

Your assumption is correct. And not such an odd one out, there are lots of similar cases.

It was booked with CSA directly. It's not mine by the way, it's for my brother but as he is not a member I wanted to clarify it here for him :)
