Am planning to part with my wife when we get towards the end of our trip in Asia (she will go home from SIN) and to take an additional 4 flights to rack up my TPs. If the RTW tickets are booked with BA will I still get TPs based on distance (proportion of) when using airlines such as CK, JL and QR or will BA base on ticket costs if the ticket is booked through them?
EDIT: in case you are wondering, first three flights on our RTW are OSL-LHR-GIG-EZE
If you are ticketing BA flight numbers on the codeshares then it's based on GBP.
If you are ticketing Cathay (CX), JL, or QR flight numbers then it's based on distance.
It doesn't matter if it's a BA ticket number 125xxxxxxxxxx.. it's the marketing carrier that determines how things are credited.
