I am about 9,000 miles away from earning Diamond and if I were to earn all 12,000 miles, it would put me over the top. I suppose on Asiana, the 25% accrual doesn't differentiate from EQM and redeemable mileage?

If so, I suppose it would be better to credit it to UA.

Am I correct in that this trip won't get me to Diamond?
It does appear that TK V fares only earn 25% EQM/RDM. That's quite a hit. If I were you, I would definitely credit this flight to another FFP that earns at least 70% EQM/RDM since OZ has a 2-year period for requalification.

Your other option would be to "buy up" to the fare that earns 100% EQM/RDM on OZ.
