Will Jetstar credit to AA?
I have had problems getting my Qantas flights credited to AA from a Global Explorer RTW trip.
Finally most of them are credited except my CHC-MEL flight which was booked as Qantas, but sometime over the last year was converted to a Jetstar flight.
Is this normally elgible for AA credit? Any suggestions?

Jetstar is not a member of Oneworld.
So what do you think?
Unless the flight was operated by QF and your boarding pass says QF, you might have recourse. After all QF owns JetStar.

If they did the change, it seems I should still get the credit.

However, as posted on your other thread, you may be able to argue your case for manual credit.

I'd say you won;t get the points.
I'm sure it will mention somewhere on AA's Terms & conditions that flights with a Oneworld airlines code on a flight operated by a non-oneworld carrier will be ineleigble for points.
ie QF code on south African codeshare etc etc
It is the same that QF FF's can;t earn on AA code's on JAL etc

Regardless, this will fall squarely on AA for a good will credit.

That's the luck of the draw.

You had you best chance to fix this problem back in August when your flights were first changed as you noted in your thread "'R' bucket and Qantas".
As I posted back then:
... And, Yes, you should complain, very firmly; Qantas LCC offshoot Jetstar are taking over Oz-CHC. They do NOT offer business class! ...
... I would call Qantas and request to be re-routed. If they say they can't do this, tell the agent in a firm but nice manner: "That's Unacceptable". ...

The best you can hope for now is that AAdvantage take note of your original business class booking and rectify accordingly.
Good luck....
