Sorry if this has been asked and answered above...
Can I assume that I won't have a problem with FCL access on a ticket issued on 016 stock but booked as a true operating LX flight numbers (LX40 ZRH-LAX)?

The work around is to show them a mobile BP.

No, you have to assume the opposite - no access. That's what most of this thread is all about: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/swiss...ust-swiss.html

• LAX-EWR-TLV in UA Business
• TLV-ZRH-LAX in LY Business/LX First (ZRH-LAX)
I'd like Amex to write the ticket using PayWithPoints and my Amex Business Platinum for the 50% rebate.
With UA as the first leg, not sure whether there is a way for them to avoid an 016 ticket.
And with an LY to LX connection, would I even be able to get a mobile BP?

Anyone know if the same issue exists with LX F flight booked through LH website? I do see the potential Swiss mobile boarding pass workaround described above, so maybe it's a non-issue either way, but it would be nice not to be holding my breath if this was just a UA thing.
