Recently, I was excited to find that UA started letting people book partner premium economy on routes that UA doesn't fly (such as SEA > NRT, only operated by NH).
Previously, partner PE were available if UA was also flying (such as SFO > NRT) but not for routes that UA metal didn't fly.
Anyway, so I'm trying to book SEA > NRT on NH PE. I was looking at PQM earnings and was a bit disappointed to find that it only earned same as regular Y.
I looked at a few other days and they had different fare classes like R, A etc but all of them only earned 100% PQM.
Is this working as intended or, are we supposed to get 1.5x PQM off partner PE as well?
