*** BREAKING NEWS ***
I just happened to look at the Etihad page for earning with Sri Lankan Airways and saw this:
"Booking Classes that qualify for accrual:
Business – J, Z, C
Economy – Y, P, W, M, B, K, H, A, O, E, R, U, Q, L, G, T, V, X"
They have updated the page to include C fare code in Business class!!! Just as I suspected, they likely made an error in not including it and have now updated the webpage.
Oddly, and not surprisingly, NONE of my C fare code tickets have been given mileage credit and nobody from EY has contacted me even after several emails telling them about the missing "C" fare code, and why it makes no sense that I don't get mileage credit for a C fare when a Z fare gets it.
Anyway, I will send yet another email now, and hope it gets responded to in under 30 days.
