Google showing some Turkish Air flights as SkyTeam?
Google flights and Matrix seem to bringing up some TK flights as SkyTeam. Anyone know why / is there a codeshare I don't know about / a way to credit some TK flights to SkyTeam? TIA.

I wonder if those are TK codeshares operated by Middle East Airlines (ME). ME is a SkyTeam member - so that could be the reason they are showing up. In that case you're probably better off booking them under the ME flight number and not the TK numbers. It may be possible to book them as TK - but then crediting them to DL may be difficult or impossible.

I'm not sure the reason but even if TK flights are booked using the ME flight numbers you will receive 0 miles on DL. It would need to be operated by a SkyTeam airline to receive any credit.
However, if they're operated by ME and marketed as ME rather than their TK codeshare flight numbers, there's no reason you can't receive credit from DL, assuming that the fare class earns miles, etc. |

Search LHR-SYD on SkyTeam and you'll get QF flights in the SIN-SYD leg. Search ATL-TBS and you'll get A9 on the AMS-TBS leg. Those two legs are codeshare with KL. I've seen others with AF, CDG-GYD on J2 for instance. So I'm not surprised to see Google Flights giving you TK flights when searching SkyTeam. I know CZ codeshares with AA.
Lots of SkyTeam members codeshare outside the alliance, but to a much lessor extent than the other two alliances. |

Doesn't look like that here. |
