AC SE Res center wants to book codeshare
Hi all,
First time I've run into this.
Even usually when AC has their codeshare set up I can book on the operating airlines' flight number as long as the price is the same (90 % of the time).
But today I call and he said if the codeshare if offered he can't book the LH flight # ("because the reason codeshares are set up is so that Air Canada gets some money for the flight" WTH?
Quite an arrogant statement! I don't want to give AC money for LH's flight).
Anyways, wondering if anybody's encountered the same thing before.

Great - got a super kind lady who sorted everything out and even requested space from LH when it wasn't showing. ^^
