Earning Points on A3 Codeshare
Hi,
I have recently booked a one-way flight ATH-AUH-SYD in J through the Aegean Airlines website in Z class. This was significantly cheaper than booking the same flights through EY.
I understand I won't earn any points through A3, but that I should be able to earn points through EY. Can anyone confirm this?
Also, does anyone know if I would be able to earn Air Berlin (or Virgin Australia) points instead? Thanks

However, I've seen stuff on here lately that seems to imply that they no longer do this, but treat the flight in the manner that it was booked - i.e. recognising codeshares as such.
There is no way that either AB or VA would give miles for a flight with A3 flightcodes.

Is there any clear evidence that A3 coded tix (booked in “D” class) operated by EY will currently earn EY miles (don’t care about status miles)? Thanks.
