Codeshare IRROPs question with separate tickets
Hi All,
Thinking of booking the following- YYZ-JFK-MXP-AUH on an AA ticket, and AUH-KHI on a separate EY ticket (saves about $550) in January. I could book the entire flight cheaper on an EY ticket but I want the AA EQMs and RDMs.
The last segment on the AA ticket (MXP-AUH) is an EY codeshare, and is on EY metal.
In the event that MXP-AUH is delayed, would EY protect me for the AUH-KHI leg, given that the delay was on their own metal?
I'm considering booking the same itinerary (KHI-AUH-MXP-JFK) on the return so it applies both ways.
If it helps, I have both AA EXP and EY Gold.
