Swiss European Air Lines

Hi! I've looked through Miles&More site & sticky and would like a confirmation please.

Miles and More website says 'Swiss International Airlines' qualify for status miles. However, if a flight is Swiss coded but by operated by 'Swiss EUROPEAN Air Lines', will I get any LH status miles? I apreciate the confirmation - thanks.

Yes, you will get your status miles, at least I always have. It's very much like Lufthansa Cityline in that respect.

I believe Swiss European Air Lines is a company that runs LX Avro fleet - is is an artificially created company, so they could pay lower wages to Avro pilots and F/As. You will get your miles... no worries...

Thank you all for your confirmation. BTW, I did subsequently managed to find an old thread here from totti on wetlease and codeshare, which confirmed the ability for status miles.
