As usual, problem fixed, proper miles credited. At least the process is fairly painless with no boarding pass required to be sent in, all done over the phone with a helpful Aeroplan SE desk agent. ^

Sorry if this is off thread…
I will use EuroBonus miles to upgrade to Business Class on PVG-CPH (operated by SK) on an upcoming flight in May. I have switched to Aeroplan this year and will hit 35k with this trip. If I were to credit my miles to EuroBonus I know that I wouldn’t get any extra bonus for my upgrade (just the miles for Y). But will Aeroplan see this as a J class ticket and credit COS bonus to my account?

It occasionally happens but usually only when changes to the itinerary/reservation are made, ie earlier/later flight etc.
I think they have worked to try and eliminate some of these things out of the computer system. With AC, there was a time that you could count on any change to automatically put you in the wrong (well right for us!
) class and get full or more than full miles! Has not happened to me in a long time now.
But each airline res system is different . . .
