Continental R fares definitely earn 150% eqm.

Here is my question:

My wife had a discounted coach ticket -- Q class, I believe. It had already been EUA'd.

On the day of departure, she paid $25 to confirm to a different flight. Flynow asked if she wanted the upgrade, and immediately seated her in first.

Her worldperks summary now shows the flight, posted as R class flown / R class paid, pending internal processing (no miles yet).

So any experience with an R/R flight? I suppose it's possible we will need to intervene to get any miles, but I'm hopeful that it will post at 150%. It's currently the difference between her qualifying for Gold for next year.
