Is VS26 JFK/LHR code-share with CO?
When I chose my flight from JFK to LHR, I presumed all VS JFK/LHR flights are all code-shared with CO. But after double-checked, VS 26 seems the one exclusive. Is it correct? Why?
Besides, when CO Plat. flying VS code-shared flights by Y, do they have some better service, like J check-in desk, luggage priority...?
Many thanks.

VS 26 is, indeed, a CO codeshare - CO 8220.

Also, your CO elite status will get you no formal benefits on VS, but if you are lucky, you can waive your Plat card and possibly check in using the PE or UC line and try the same at boarding to pre-board.
