However, for a WT+ base fare on a BA codeshare for the EI leg, it should book into Y if it's anything like BA's own connections ex-EU for example. If it's under the codeshare you should get the minimum BA miles and TPs (20 per leg) as if it was a BA flight. If it's an EI code, you'll just get the miles (no TPs).

Thanks G-BOAC,

re: 2) - with a BA WT+ base fare and an EI codeshare (BA code) ORK-LHR, I would hope that the BA code connecting flight would book into Y and get 20TPs each way - that would be exactly what I need tbh ...

Appreciate the guidance.

I'll call them on Monday to check it all out.

Thanks,

JP
