You will get credit on the LH flights as they are operated by Air Canada. You must look at the OPERATING carrier and not the carrier who is issuing the ticket. You will not get AE miles on the BD flight as K fares on BMI earn nothing with AE. I will posting these flight segments to my UA MP account.

You will also be able to use eCredits to upgrade the TATL segments on AC, but since they are LH flight numbers you will only be able to request these upgrades at the airport and not in advance.

Hope this provides some additional, helpful information.

yes, I'm looking at that too. Do you think it's possible to skip the NYC leg and just start and end at YYZ? Would that void the entire ticket? If so, I'm looking at the option of starting at BUF and the LU flight is then operated by CO. In that case, I think we can get 100% status too right?

Thanks
