It is an AA flight, thus why the plane is made to look like an AA plane and why they cant also allow UA/DL/etc to also sell seats on the plane using the UA/DL/etc code. This is same with AS and Horizon. Horizon doesn't operate any of their own flights. They operate flights on behalf of AS.
I believe all Nora flights are operated on behalf of Finnair and thus should get credit. The problem is getting an agent to understand this difference. Hopefully explaining AS/Horizon situation will help.
This sums it up perfectly.
