When flying TAM in the next month, is it possible to earn EQM (or equivalent) on any other airline? Thanks

TAM milleage program (Fidelidade) has agreements with Star partners LH, UA, TAP, SA, and AC. In addition, TAM also has full agreement with LAN.

Those are all codeshare agreements, and until TAM is fully integrated into *A, I think one will only receive RDMs. I haven't received any EQMs on UA yet.

In the case of LAN, LH and TAP the agreement cover more than codeshare and you may also earn miles.

You do ear miles with UA or LH and many other Star partners plus LAN.

See LH:

Yes, but no EQMs right - i.e., No status earning miles, points, or segments.

So with TAM, you can only earn status on TAM, for now.

Right, that is the way I understand it, only redeemable miles at the moment. And my past experience in trying to get them to credit the redeemable miles to UA has not always been successful. So the TAM miles I now charge to TAM.
