Hi. Thanks.
I guess I didn't make it 100% clear. I know what United will award for the fares on Austrian. I also know what AC will award for flights on United. What I can't figure out is what AC/AP will award for flights on Austrian purchased through UA. The reason seems to be that United awards its fare class, which may not, I am led to believe match Austrian's fare class and it is the Austrian class that AC/AP will use to calculate points. That fare class wouldn't be on my ticket United's would.

It is my understanding that many AC/AP members have been burned by this, believing they would get 100% points for example only to earn 25%. Maybe I'm being paranoid but I've been warned to be extra careful in making these types of bookings.
