This is the thing I covered in my most recent post:
Note if you were booked on UA6889, a UA codeshare on a SAS flight, in L class, you would need to determine the matching SK booking class to determine mileage accural. This information is available from EF or KVS.
I haven't been able to find the underlying booking class on UA.sux, so I use EF instead of calling a phone agent.
This is an issue to consider regardless of where you book if you book a codeshare flight.
