Miles for Airlink flight?
 

Though I keep my *A miles with TK I generally credit my SA flights to EK, since a CPT-JNB usually racks up a couple hundred Skywards miles. I've just come off the 2nd SA Airlink flight in a 3-leg itinerary to Nelspruit and back to CPT and it occurred to me I may have made a mistake by putting in my Skywards number instead of Voyager or TK.

Airlink is a private airline that simply operates exclusively under SA codeshare (similar to SAX which is a subsidiary of SAA). They're not a *A member and while they're a part of Voyager I'm wondering if anyone knows if flights operated by them (on SA code and ticket stock) earn Skywards miles?

I could just wait a week or two for miles to post but as one knows curiosity and cats and something.

I got some EK miles for an Airlink flight (ticketed seperately from my EK flights) last year, it was 500 each way for the JNB-Skukuza flight. They did take between 3 and 4 weeks to post

Awesome! Then hopefully it works out. Was a last minute full economy booking so 100% earning according to the EK website (on SAA which should be identical on Airlink operated flights if they post at all)

I can confirm you do get miles credited to EK skywards when flying with Airline :-:


Takes a while thou to show up :cool:
