TP does that also on their discount no luggage fares, and they have a note stating that Star Golds allowed their allowance.

Where should I credit my business class flight (JFK-Turkey-Budapest) butt in seat miles flown on Turkish Airlines? If this matters, the airfare was $5500.
From JFK, I mainly fly to ICN and LAX and want to use my miles for economy reward tickets to ICN or LAX. Should I add my Turkish "butt in seat" miles to Asiana or United Airlines? Could you explain some pros/cons/general advice on where to place these miles? Do I just call the airline and tell them I want to add flown miles to a different airline?
A few other points:
-I tend to buy the cheapest flight possible
-I fly 1-2x/year to Asia, 3x to LA, 1x to Europe
-I will never fly to Turkey again
-I don't understand Star Gold alliance status or levels and have been with sky team for 15 years
