Question: LH AirRail

Hi,

read a lot about AirRail which sounds nice. Will the miles also count for United Mileage Plus status or only for LH status?

Miles and More only. LH will allow you to put your Mileage Plus number in the record, but then you will never, ever get any miles for that trip.

Imo you will get UA miles. I always got AC miles when taking the train. Only 625 miles oneway but better than nothing.

UA will give you nothing!!

According to a UA policy you can earn miles on LH- flights, but not on their Codeshare partners like the Airrail. You also get no miles when flying from FRA to CLT with LH- flight No. on US metall! The only Codeshare Partner permitted is UA metal flown with LH no.

This may have been the case before US joined the *-Alliance but already was a LH partner, but since those flight will count on UA as well.
