According to wheretocredit, JL S class gets 50% if credit to AS. Almost 8000 miles distance, that would net 4,000 AS miles.
Too bad AS status resets on Dec 31 rather than Jan 31; as MVP I'd get 75% but the flight is in early Jan.
How do I find out if AA S maps to JL S?
Normally the marketing airline applies, not the operating airline, so you should Mileage Plan miles as if you were flying AA.
