Flying to YUL from LGA - earning PQPs
I'm flying to Montreal next month and I'd like to fly from LGA rather than EWR. All of those flights are on AC metal.
When I went to book the ticket with United, I got a prompt that said "This flight segment is ineligible to earn mileage or Premier qualifying credit."
Question 1 - Is that right? If you fly a UA ticketed flight on a Star Alliance partner's metal, you don't get PQPs?
Question 2 - If I ticket with Air Canada, I get 1/5th of the 324 miles as PQPs? So, 65 PQPs?
Do I have this right?
Thanks!
