I am hopeful that the quoted language covers this situation (i.e. means i will get credit for this leg); however, who knows? Also, before anybody looks at this and suggests that the Transavia operated flight is a discount flight and may not be eligible for credit because of the discount status; I would say that if you look at the pricing it sure does not look like there is a big discount anywhere in the ticket.
Is that any different than me flying one segment from YVR to SEA on a DL ticket, through DL partner AS, but on Horizon Air metal? I did this last month and accrued proper mileage.
