So you see the itineraries above. Do I just call Aeroplan and Thai Smile and ask them to "cross-reference" their ticket number to the other ticket? Dunno if it matters but Thai Smile isn't a full member of Star Alliance, they are a "connecting partner".

Do you have to have status on either to do this?

You can call, and just tell them to note you are arriving on [flight number/date/PNR] before/after your flight. It will go in the notes section, which is an open field that agents can access. No status needed.

that is, if they want to or are looking for notes. It will do nothing if an automated system is doing something (ie, rebooking due to cancel), so it won’t, say, ensure your rebooked flight is still after your original across PNRs. Important to point out, again, it’s completely manual and only seen by agents if they look there. So might help, but in many situations, won’t.
