That's how it has been from day one of the fast tracl. Have the status on the airline you are flying, or don't use. On QR even business class does not qualify, only their own OWE.

From what I've read, JL and QF can't cooperate too much due to anti-trust concerns.

I don't think JL and QF codeshare on any JP-AU routes. For example, for TYO-BNE, JL would rather route me through SIN and then put me on a codeshare operated by QF rather than recommend QF's direct flights from NRT or their HND flight via SYD.

It was a question, what happens if you fly a JL codeshare on another airline with a JL status card. How will it be treated? As a JL flight with JL status, or a ?? flight with JL status. Or vice versa for that matter.

Sailed through today on a CX marketed and operated flight and my AA EXP/Emerald number, while flying in Y. No need to show my card. Not the first time, either. So not sure what the rules are (or aren't).

Now with the AU-JP market picking up again, JL has 1 (soon 2) flights (SYD/MEL), QF has 3 (SYD-HND, MEL/BNE-NRT, soon a 4th seasonal SYD-KIX), JQ has 3 (OOL/CNS-NRT, CNS-KIX) and NH has 1.
Unless NH opens more flights, the ACCC won't let QF/JL codeshare on the non stop routes.
I think JL codeshares on the JQ flights.

I guess it depends on how the airline prints the Emerald status on the boarding pass. For JL it will be clear on the boarding pass whether it is a JL emerald status or not. If CX does not distinguish, then it would work for anyone.

It actually says "AA/EMERALD XXXXXX" where the X's are the AAdvantage number.
