Well, so then in this case they should also make YUL-MSY 6 credits, even while selling a legal routing via IAH. The fact that the last leg is a codeshare shouldn't make a difference. I accept not being upgraded, but don't rip me off just because I choose the IAH connection.

Yup, or YYZ-GRU at 5085. Annoying, it is.
