The specific information you are looking for btw. can not be found on aeroplan.com or the website of any other Star Alliance carrier. The booking class mapping is embedded within the codeshare-agreement between the airlines. Aeroplan most likely does not have the information what UA booking classes a LH T or K is, UA just tells them that you took flight UA 123 in S or whatever booking class and they credit your account accordindly.
Thanks for this. Is this to say then that all (paid) UA flights earn AP miles no matter the booking class? It just seems strange that a codeshare on a third party airline would cost less than the mainline
