Question.
This may be a stupid Question... (If so, Sorry.. I am a newbie)So I was just wondering when airlines offer promotion to fly with their partners. Which airline's miles do you get? Do you get miles from both airlines?
For example, Delta offers skymiles when you book with Continental. Then Do I get both Skymiles and Onepass Miles?
How does this whole thing works?
Thank you!

There are elaborate games that can be played with booking with one number and switching to the other at the gate; those are done, for example, to play with the upgrade lottery (airlines will upgrade their own fliers first) and then switch to book miles on the other airline. However, when it is all over, you only get the miles on the last one you present.
Always save your boarding passes, if you don't get credited with the miles you can fax those in as proof.
