Continental Codeshare ???
I am brand new to this forum and found it over the weekend. So far I have learned a lot from the other posts. I have tried the search function on this, but am not finding the answer to my question.
Here goes, booked on Continental ticket stock (T) fare for two flights operated by Northwest Airlines (ended up K on nwa.com). Will I get the full 100% mileage accrual for elite qualifying miles for these flights. DTW-MEM-MCO or will I get the 50% that Continental tickets are many times subject to. I know the answer if I were going to be on Continental operated flights, but since they are actually operated my Northwest Airlines, I am not sure.
Thanks!

Ok, I'm going to edit this again for the third time.
If you are a NW WorldPerks member, you will earn 100% EQM because the flights are operated by NW - regardless that they are ticketed by CO.
If you are a CO OnePass member, you will earn 50% EQM because the flights are operated by NW.

My 2 cents, because I never travel on Continental and because I forgot about the 50% EQM - I am going to have to do a mini MR for 250 miles I will be short (after I thought I had carefully planned it out!)to get GE again.
