ET points posting
I had the pleasure of trying this carrier out on a fifth freedom connection between NRT and ICN. It's always fun flying someone new but now I realise that a month later and those J-class Star points have yet to appear. Anyone have experience with this exotic (for me) Star member and when they post points?
Thanks
Thanks

Should be able to use the claim missing airpoints after 14 days right? https://www.airnewzealand.co.nz/memb...points/flights

What was the fare class? Unfortunately, it seems that deeply discounted business ‘P’ business class earns nothing on Airpoints.

Thanks, and LyingFlat
I had no idea that the curse of the P fare extended to ET. I fell into this trap using the Lufthansa P fares earning not a sniff, and I think LX deprived me of any earning, too.
I will try the reclaim form and see where that gets me.
On a side note, I was pleased I was not taking a fairly grubby 788 all the way to ADD. Nice food (lifted out of NRT, of course) and some interesting Ethiopian wines to test, but the product is early lie-flat in public.

Don't waste it and do a retro claim with another programme such as UA that does credit P class. Their recently annouced family pooling could come in handy one day.
It took literally years for NZ to add LH P class as an eligible class.
