Will I earn CO miles?
I am guessing the answer is YES. However, there are no mention of codeshares and mile-earning potential on co.com
Seems like a real simple question. But couldnt find the answer.
Thanks.
Yes, you earn miles.
You will earn based on the US fare bucket that the UA fare you purchased maps into. There isn't a published list of what maps to what that I've seen but coach is coach and first has levels within it. You also earn elite bonus RDMs based on the US schedule, not the UA schedule. That matters for Gold elites.
