United.com is telling me that the return on Jazz will earn 0 PQF, 0 PQP, and 0 RDM. This is just a united.com mistake with it not recognizing Jazz as a partner, right? The flight actually will earn status credit, right? If it doesn't, then I'll change to another flight.
to be fair, the reason for the display error may or may not be related to the Jazz-operated flight. Partner accrual rates are frequently off - and I’ve even seen all UA/UAX itins show 0 miles earned.
further, no matter what the before display shows, it will almost certainly post correctly. Through multiple partner and UA flights, the only time I’ve personally had issues with accruals posting properly are when they are affected by IRROPS. Even if, it’s usuallly a quick process to request the miles and they’ll post just fine.
