EQM/EQD credit for a BA consolidator ticket
I am considering purchase of a BA consolidator fare, which will not show the actual fare on the ticket. Does anyone know if I will earn EQD/EQM on the flight?
PS. Unless you are sure (preferably from personal experience), please do not answer as I would hate to fly half way across the world and find I got no mileage credit!

It will depend upon who is issuing your ticket, how your ticket is purchased, and the fare class you are booked in. Some consolidator purchased tickets may be fine, others not so much.

For partner carrier tickets all that matters is the booking code. You should earn via the BA table at aa.com for whatever fare code the ticket ultimately books into.
