Flying Lufthansa, miles on LAN/TAM?
According to LH, they have a partnership with the LATAM group. In this link, they say they have recognition of the FF programme. Anyone knows if you can get LANPASS miles when flying LH?? Thanks!!

Just FYI, you are asking a question which is not about Miles & More.
In any case, I tried to find that information for you but the LANPASS relevant page is currently unavailable:
I also tried to look it up in Spanish, same outcome.
If you are interested, the number of miles you earn at Miles & More when flying TAM are here.

OOPS! PAGE NOT FOUND
The page you're looking forward doesn't exist, isn't available or the address isn't correct.

M&M terminated partnership with JJ?
I wonder when M&M stopped awarding miles for JJ flights? They quietly removed the JJ page as if it never existed...
I had a couple of flights with JJ in February, and now M&M is rejecting my retro credit request (ironically, some JJ flights had been credited without issues).
I would be grateful for any information.
Looks like TK has also ended partnership with JJ as of April.

But TAM Brasil (JJ, not LA) still remained kinda as a separate entity. M&M continued to award miles for JJ, same is true for Miles&Smiles. I am absolutely sure LH was still awarding miles for JJ in the beginning of this year. One of my JJ flights credited to M&M without issues, while others have not.

If you flew before early May - when that LA and JJ finally merged moving to a single GDS (SABRE) and a single code (LA with some JJ flights kept mostly for bilateral/legal reasons) - you should get the miles (if in eligible booking class).

Accumulating miles on LATAM flights
Hi,
Recently, Miles & More started a cooperation with LATAM, offering Miles & More members to accumulate miles on LATAM flights.
(see https://www.miles-and-more.com/onlin...l=en&cid=10001 )
However, it seems that LATAM itself is not aware of this cooperation. At first, It was almost impossible to add the M&M number to the booking - only after few phone calls to the reservation center, I was able to do that. At the first phone calls, they insisted they are in a different alliance (One World vs. Star alliance) and that they have no knowledge regarding the new alleged agreement.
Later on, came the part I still didn't resolve: When coming to do the early check-in at the LATAM website it didn't allow me to select M&M. So I've decided not to do online check-in and to do it the old-fashioned way - at the airport. Much to my surprise - all the ground staff insisted that such an agreement does not exist, that it is a different alliance, and that I cannot accumulate miles on M&M.
I've tried to write to M&M customer service, but they seem to ignore all e-mails.
Any thoughts?

No Miles for LATAM Flight
Hello,
I had a RT flight SCL-IPC on LATAM business class I. When booking I added my LH SEN number but then I see in my M&M account: Your request for a retroactive mileage credit. LA 843 SANTIAGO DE CHILE-ISLA DE PASCUA Economy Class, J on 11/27/2019 has been rejected because Flight already credited.
So I called the hotline, where they did not know why this happened and they opened a case. A couple of days later I get the following message in a M&M Inbox: We cannot credit your flight with our airline partner to your Miles & More account because the route or flight number is not covered by our contractual agreement.
There is no mention of this of this the M&M website...
Did anyone have this issue before?
Thanks!
Laik

As per M&L (L for less) website you should even earn executive bonus flying LATAM. Unfortunately they also write "Some flight numbers and booking classes may not qualify for earning miles." In this case it would be interesting to know on WHICH LATAM flights we can earn miles..... (status miles and status points n 2021).

I did get award miles for a Puerto Natales - Santiago flight with LATAM Chile which was the day before the Easter Island one, but they were on different booking codes...
