Hainan on Partner Page
Was looking at the accrual chart just now and on "How to Earn" where it lists all of its partners, Hainan appears now at the top as the first airline, even before A3.
I know a few years back some random airlines popped up there for a few days as well, but anyone know of anything about a potential partnership with Hainan? Wouldn't be surprised given the large amount of Chinese tourism in Greece.

The same would also be true, wouldn't it? If you book an Aegean flight under a non-Star Alliance codeshare, there would be no requirement for A3 to honour any of the Star perks, would there? In such a case, again, you couldn't earn miles - so why would any of the other benefits be extended?
And there is no mention of Hainan/HU on the patners page any more.

As things stand, A3 codesharing on non-*A partners (Etihad, for example) means you get no *A benefits. You don't even get miles!
