That's wrong. In the case of Swiss and Helvetic Helvetic is not operating a code share flight, but a wet lease flight with only an LX flight number. On code share flights, when the main carrier you would earn miles on only has the codeshare number on it, you won't earn any miles. This is like Swiss and Edelweiss. All the Edelweiss flights hold Swiss code share FN, but if you're not a member of the LX program M&M you won't earn ANY miles on those flights, even if you booked via the codeshrae number.
