CO metal with BM codeshare
 

Hello, flying EWR-LON frequently and was curious what the downside would be to booking via BM codeshare, which appears much cheaper.

- Will this count towards the $30,000 spend for status?
- Will EQM be calculated the same?

Thank you.

The code for bmi is actually BD.

Lacking any published details to the contrary (and there aren't any), I would assume that the spend does not qualify for PPlat status. The EQMs will be calculated based on whichever fare class the paid BD fare maps into on the CO system.
