Mileage Accrual on Partner Flights - KrisFlyer Flying ANA on UA Flight Number
I am with KrisFlyer and booked on the following flights:
UA 804 - SIN to NRT - Class Q. Operated by UA.
UA 7950 - NRT to SFO - Class Q. Operated by ANA.
In the e-ticket I purchased from United, it is stated as Class Q for both flights.
In KrisFlyer accrual charts, Class Q on UA accrual 100% and ANA 70%.

Question :
1. Is UA Q Class same as ANA Q Class?
2. Would I be accruing 70% or 100% on the NRT to SFO route?
ANA is of no help. When I called them, they insist that I need to speak to KrisFlyer. KrisFlyer says that mileage accrual are determined by the operating carrier.

(1) Probably not. Mapping booking classes across airlines is an exercise in futility.
(2) I'm afraid you will have to wait and see. Basically the only way to be sure is to book in Y and B, which should always be the highest economy booking classes.

As for your question on #2, in Star Alliance you get credit based on the operating carrier when flying a *A codeshare, so unfortunately I'd anticipate 70% earnings. What you were told by KrisFlyer is correct.
