Has anyone had recent experience with mileage crediting after an AC ticket exchange? My HNL-YVR flight after New Years was switched over to Omni Intl. due to the 737 MAX grounding.
When I look at the AC reservation, it now shows "J" class, although I originally booked in P. When I try to print a receipt of my flight, the detailed fare info reads:
With the new PQP scheme, it might be helpful to get "J" mileage credit over "P". Has anyone else who flew Omni to/from Hawaii on an AC ticket gotten credit in Mileage Plus?

The fare details are not available for this booking because there has been a change in itinerary.

So I wouldn't count on getting J credit. It's possible, but I would say more likely than not, you'll get P credit.

Quick sanity check please: booked on 016 basic economy ticket (DCA-YYZ-LIS-EWR-DCA) that contains both UA and AC (Rouge) segments, all K class. Email receipt says I'll earn 100% PQM. This is wrong, correct? I should earn 50% PQM regardless of fare class because it's basic economy, per UA PQM earning chart for AC metal?

I'm looking at AC K fare (international deep discount) from YVR - HKG. Non 016 stock. Both basic and non-basic are booked into K class.
According to AC, It seems basic fares only get 25% miles flown towards awards. But on UA's AC chart it just says K class gets you 50% (that chart does not address basic at all) - just want to make sure if I book basic, I will be using 0.5 as multiplier and not 0.25?

They do and the seats are very comfortable - maybe not as fancy as Polaris, but still perfectly fine. Service on the other hand can be described as bipolar.
No seatmap needed - trust me, I've flown this aircraft YYZ-LAX and it was the 1st-world equivalent of being waterboarded. The seats are very, very narrow, non-existent legroom, and inadequate cushioning. Anyone larger than a small child sitting beside you will make it pure hell. 5 hours was more than enough, I can't begin to imagine 14.

31" pitch, 17" wide. We should torture terrorists by forcing them to fly on this plane. After 2 or 3 flights, back-to-back, they'll spill their guts.
