For much of 2015, we'll operate as two separate airlines with two reservation systems and two websites.
That doesn't sound like a 2Q15 SOC to me...

I would not bet on US flights being able to credit to AS ever- so until the SOC exists and everyone is on the same reservation system/metal... don't bet on getting AS credit.
