Upgrade an AA Codeshare?

Can I use my Asiamiles to upgrade an AA codeshare (AA flight number operated by China Eastern)?

i think it's NO. you can only use Asia Miles to upgrade CX metal flights. you can't even use Asia Miles to upgrade AA metal flights so i doubt you can use it to upgrade a China Eastern-operated AA-numbered flight.

actually you can use Asia Miles to upgrade flights on quite a few airlines besides CX...including, AA, BA, MU, KA, LX, EI, etc...but, while both AA and MU on the list, i also don't think you could upgrade AA flights operated by MU...but i really don't have the correct answer, you might need to call them to find out...

Like I said... CHINA SOUTHERN , YES. CHINA EASTERN , NO.

AA codeshares with CHINA EASTERN and NOT China Southern.

GB - what are you on about? Why introduce China Southern into the discussion?

tedhl summarises it correctly, though I would be a bit more optimistic that I could get the upgrade.
