I'm still confused by this even having read many of the articles (although not all 12 pages of this thread).
- Are Emirates flights currently able to earn UA EQM (or whatever they are called now)?
- If not now, will they be in the spring when the codeshares begin?
- Will the EQM only be on the codeshares? I.E. Only for EWR-DXB and not IAD-DXB?
If there's no earning potential, I don't really understand how this is beneficial.
