I recently had a misconnection in LHR and was rebooked from an AA flight # on AA metal to an AA flight # on BA metal. I made it home, which was great, but now I'm trying to figure out how to approach the miles. The initial response on the phone was "no, we used to do it unofficially", but I have yet to exhaust all options (e.g. Twitter).
I just had an unbelievable resolution. I noticed last night that the flight had posted to my AA account (part of the automatic rebooking?). I called AAdvantage customer service to remove the flight, and the agent offered to "push" it through to AS. It showed up first thing this morning on Mileage Plan as a BA flight with the flown booking class.

I had no idea this was possible. In the past, after removing the flight, AAdvantage agents have always told me to request credit through Alaska.
