Interesting Codeshare Predicament
 

I booked a SEA-MIA flight via an AA ticket on an AS operated flight. I'm wondering if I will get credit on my NW account. The ticket was significantly cheaper doing it this way, in the end it won't really matter cause I've already attained silver for the year and I have no chance at gold.

Do the flights have AS #'s or does it say something like AAxxxx operated by Alaska Airlines? If they have AA flight #'s, I'd say no. If they have AS #'s I'd say a very good possiblity. I don't think it would matter that it was ticketed by AA acting as a travel agent for AS, but I couldn't say for sure.

Only thing that matters is that it's Alaska Metal. You'll get NW miles.

Can I quote you on that to the CSR if they dont give me credit?:)

Agree - if it is Alaska metal, you can post to NW.

If you needed a person to quote, you shouldn't have posted here :D. Check AS/NW/AA websites, call NW and quote their own CSR's or websites!

AS# on AA metal has worked in the past
 

Agreed that AS#, on AS metal should be able to ---> NW.

IIRC, a couple of years ago, I was actually able to credit an AS# flight, code-shared w/ AA, and AA-operated on AA metal (!) to my NWA account. I had booked it through my firm's travel agent and we didn't think it was possible, but by forcing through only my NW acct number on the record, I got credit for the AS flight to my NW account. Of course, I had no elite status on the AA bird, but the miles did credit.
