Same Flight with different miles?
I just noticed something interesting. We took a YVR-PVG on AC last year. I had my miles post to AP, Mrs zlc post to USAir DM and Kid zlc posting to UA MP. What's strange is I got 5603, wife got 5615 and kid got 5616.
Any one have a clue why AC gave different miles to different FFP for the same flight?
