Can I just go ahead and book the Westjet code and claim retro miles or am I missing something here? Many thanks.
You can only book the codeshare if connecting from a BA flight. So LHR-YYZ-YOZ can be booked with a codeshare, but otherwise not.
WestJet is not a BA partner so if you book YYZ-YOZ you cannot credit it to BA, only if it was sold as a BA codeshare with a connecting itinerary.
