Mileage Earning on BA issued ticket without BA flight number
Does anyone know if a BA issued ticket on flights without a BA flight number, will it earn Avios based on the BA chart (e.g. elite bonus and so on)?

Who issues the ticket makes no difference; it is based on marketing carrier for each flight subject to eligible operating carrier (any carrier if BA marketed, OW operated if other OW marketed)

So if you have a ticket for a flight "without a BA flight number", that flight cannot be "BA marketed".

By using the numbers under which your flights have been sold to you, you can look up the avios and TP you will earn here:
