Ex: FRA - HND, operated by ANA, LH 4912

2. Do I earn "qualifying points", "points" or NO points at all if I book by Lufthansa's homepage and the segment is operated by an operator which is not member of Star Alliance but still have an LH airline code?

Ex: FRA - ORK, operated by Cityjet, LH 984

3. Do Miles and More have a rule book regarding code share flights and points earning, which I can access online?

4. Does it matter if I book by Lufthansa's homepage when it comes to earning qualifying points/points Vs a third party booking agency?

Edit: All flights in economy.

1. Just points, no QP’s.
2. You get both, it’s an LH prime number, and for all intents and purposes it’s LHG metal.
3. In Star Alliance, it’s metal that counts, not the marketing carrier.
4. Not really, no, unless you’re accessing some private fares via the OTA.
