My thoughts are that AC had a codeshare on LH flight from FRA-DME but it seems that they do not. ITA does not even provide DME-FRA-YOW as an option.
So has anyone had experience with routings on an AC ticket?
When you phone in you are not limited to codeshares. You can book any LH (edit: in Europe also LX, OS, LO, TK, SN -- even BA and EI) metal flight. If you can find something on an AC fare basis on ITA Matrix regardless of codeshares you can call AC to book it without fee.
