Is Z the booking class (showing as 'business (Z)' in manage my booking), or the booking reference (like 6 digit Amadeus reference number, e.g. ZBRCC6- that does not change when they rebook, afaik)?
Not done the upgrade thing in while, but never seen booking class Z on UL!
Don't know flysmiles-their program, but I suspect that award biz class books into U..so Z could, possibly, be an entirely new ball game.
CX MPC/Asiamiles take 2-4 weeks to post UL flights, btw. Worst case you could try to get a credit for the original booking class...

I recently flew from Colombo to Shanghai Pudong (May 9). My boyfriend and I bid for this leg and our bid was accepted. Strange thing is that our new booking reference is 'Z', not 'I' as many of you have mentioned here.
So I am a bit worried as I credited the miles earn to Marco Polo/Asia Miles and they don't recognize 'Z' booking class for business class. They do recognize 'I' though. FYI, before the upgrade, my booking class was 'V' which is also recognize by Asiamiles and Marco Polo.
So far, nothing has happened with my Asiamiles as I expect it will take a while for the miles to be credited. But should Asiamiles not credit the miles to my account, do I have a strong ground to object and ask for the miles?
I hope you guys can share your experience / some information about this.
Many thanks!
