mileage earning options?
Any chance of earning miles on any airline other than HP for a HP flight? HP is pricing out really low for an upcoming trip, but I don't want to endure a connection, a 3 hour PHX-SEA flight on a CRJ and end up earning no useful miles.
I don't want to sign up for Flight Fund because it makes things too complicated. I know HP terminated its agreement w/CO but was wondering if they have an agreement w/anyone else.

When flying America West and/or America West Express, you may credit your flights to the following programs instead of FlightFund:
- British Airways Executive Club
- Hawaiian Airlines HawaiianMiles
- Virgin Atlantic Flying Club
If you were flying America West or America West Express operated flights between the United States and Mexico/Canada/Alaska as well as Northwest coded flights between Phoenix/Las Vegas and Los Angeles/San Francisco when connecting to Northwest Airlines flights to/from Asia, you could also have the option of Northwest Airlines WorldPerks.

TransWorldOne, would we get any bonus in the programs you listed based on our HP FF elite level? It would be great if I can fly HP and accrue to BA with my normal HP bonus 
As a matter of fact, are you aware of any mileage program that credits elite bonus to its own program when taking a flight on a partner's metal? And whether it makes any difference between an actual code share vs a partner's flight number?

Thanks for the feedback TransWorldOne.
Too bad OnePass miles seem to only be usable for rulebuster awards based on comments on other boards
