This may also be wrong: AZ light fares to/from Paris are excluded from mileage earning in MilleMiglia:
I've never flown an Alitalia light fare to/from Paris, but I can't imagine that they all earn miles in FB, as the idea here seems to be to deny miles on these routes, regardless of operator/FFP used.
If you read the first post of HalconBCN, he is stating that he wants to credit the miles on its Flyingblue account and that he has an "O" class ticket.
I answered to those specific questions and my asnwers are also based on my personal experience on a "O" lightfare ticktet form ORY to LIN.
