Class of service bonus on code-shares
 
FT'ers: from the chart, Aeroplan awards 150% class of service miles (or a 50% bonus) for all business classes including "P" class.

Question: Would this apply on an Air Canada ticket in "P" class operated on another carrier?

Example: Aeroplan only awards 50% of the distance flown on Lufthansa flights in P class. If the flight is booked in P class as an AC code-share - what's the rule? AC @ 150% or LH @50% ?:confused:

Thanks so much ^

Operating metal rules. So in this case, I would say 50%

Code shares are notoriously evil when it comes to AQMs...

Today I studiously avoided LH metal in P fare because they only give 100% AQM whereas AC equipment gives 150%.

There are way too many "gotchas" when putting trips together, it's totally insane

On SA it says you get 150% for P, but describes it as First. I flew on SA on an AC codeshare in P. Waiting to see what I get. I would think 150%, but not holding my breath!

SA-operated AC codeshare in P earns 50%:

Ouch! :td: :(

Oh well. I guess if should expect that if I can go to CPT and back during one of their busiest weeks of the year for $2619! I am a bottom feeder! Last year I got 125%, but I paid a lot more.

That chart is incorrect - it has not been updated since P was a Tango class. If you flew on SA in Business, it would have to map to one their business buckets (CDJZ) which earn 125%. I would expect 125%

Earning is based on carrier operating the flight; not who sold it too you. AC has put some effort into clearing up what you will earn on code shares. Your best bet is to simply avoid that non-sense and book onto the operating carriers flight number in their booking class.. things become a bit more clear that way.

The last post in this thread from April 2014 says P earns 125% as per an AC supervisor. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/air-c...-update-8.html This conflicts with the chart linked above. Why can't these things be easy to find? Last time I flew on SAA, it took 6 months to get my miles to post after many calls and emails to AC.

Precisely why I started the thread. Hope we get the answer on previous poster's SA-operated AC p class fare. Hope a businesss ticket got at least 100%, if not 125%:D
