Prior to booking flights on partner airlines, it is a good idea to check the the US Airways Partner Earning Page.
It is always a good idea to save your boarding pass and any other booking materials, as this may be needed if the miles don't automatically post.

FYI, there's a sticky at the top of the forum (Links to popular ongoing US Airways Threads: LOOK IN HERE BEFORE POSTING NEW THREADS ), it would be a good idea to take a peek in there before posting a new thread.
Thanks!

How long for LH partner miles to post to US?
How long does it typically take for LH flight partner miles to post to your US DM account?

Both of my LH flights in July posted within 24 hours. If you've been waiting a while for your miles, it's possible that you unknowingly flew a fare class that earns no miles.

Miles posting to DM - UA versus AC
Sorry if this sounds like an uninformed question (i did check the wiki first and couldn't find an answer), but I am trying to book holiday travel and want to ensure I am getting 100% mileage if at all possible. AC has changed their mileage earning fare buckets significantly, and many more AC fares now seem to earn only 50%.
I can book flights for around $250 each way on AC and get 50% DM miles (AC "T" fare class) or book on UA (codeshare, same flights on AC metal) for about $325 which are UA "T" fare bucket, which should accrue at 100% according to DM chart. Note to get 100% miles on AC I would have to spend $800 each way, so pricing difference is significant.
So UA T class code share will earn 100% DM's......or won't they ?
Thanks for the guidance.

I believe this is listed in the link provided in the Wiki at the top of this thread (which I merged your thread into).

Jet Airways Flights Posting to USDM
Just completed a transatlantic journey in J last week but still haven't seen the miles posted. Can anyone tell me how long does it take?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I certainly can't give you an answer for any specific airline, but international carriers (especially those not in *A) may be tied to the clearinghouse schedule which would be 1-2 weeks at a minimum unless there's something in the US/Jet agreement specifying a settling of miles while bypassing the clearinghouse.

500 mile minimum US DM for flying on UA?
Probably been asked and answered multiple times, but I did look in all the usual and recommended places and didn't find it.
I am a US CP with no status on UA (not even a UA FF# !!). If I book a UA itinerary crediting to my US DM# (1) will I get 500 mile minimums? and (2) will I get actual miles (and segments) flown and not the UA direct N/S mileage credited to my DM?
This for January bookings while US will (hopefully!) still be *A.
TIA for the correct info.

Someone else can cover the 500 mi minimum, but "actual" will depend on the flight(s). Multiple flights each having individual flight numbers should earn mileage per segment. "Direct" flights - making a stop but keeping the same flight number - generally earns only N/S miles/segments. And of course, actual N/S flights earn the N/S miles/1 segment.
NOTE - some UA "express" flights don't earn anything and are the subject of another thread.

Both my wife and I are preferred on US, and we've flown a half dozen flights on UA in the past couple months where we've credited the flights to US, and all of the segments that are less than 500 miles (CLT-IAD which is three hundred something, CLE-CLT which is four something, etc) have posted as 500 miles in our accounts.

Finnair codeshare on AA metal - can I get USDM?
Since this is about mile accrual post merger, decided to post here. Mods, please relocate as you see fit
Flying to/from LHR in September. Looking to have this trip credit to US to make CP this year (probably won't otherwise). Corp booking tool shows Finnair codeshare on AA metal as the cheapest fare in business, can I get DM?
Looking at ways to book either the US codeshare or as the AA flight but those fares are 2k more. I realize that I could post the miles to my AA acct, but wouldn't make CP at the end of the year.
Any insight would be helpful! TIA

Under oneworld rules, flying a oneworld codeshare operated by a oneworld airline, yes. But check the USDM criteria for earning if they are limited by fare class (they will be in accordance with the USDM earnings for the marketing airline - see here).
As this is really about earning USDM, we'll relocate it for the most informed input; we'll merge it into any existing threead on the issue. /Moderator
