Earning Aeroplan status miles on UA flights operated by US Air

Filed under: xn--cnq77f.com

  • Well the title says it all.

    I just realized that I have booked myself on a couple of UA flights operated by US Air. Since I have a UA flight number will I still get Aeroplan miles OR am I out of luck?


  • If US Air gets accepted into Star Alliance, presumably AC will get into an alliance arrangement with this airline, prior to the date US Air joins, and perhaps one can get full Q miles on AC codeshared flights - as is now the case with AC codeshared flights on Spanair.


  • No AE miles if the flight is not operated by UA in this case. Sorry...


  • I don't know the answer to this thought:

    Can you sign up for Mileage Plus before a flight and have those miles credited to United? I don't know if you have to be a member before you book the ticket or just before the flight.

    The other option is to try and earn US Air miles the same way.

    I don't' know the in's and outs but it sure seems like a shame to just have miles flown and not earned somewhere. It's just not the FT way http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif


  • Do you get points for UA flights operated by Atlantic Coast?


  • Aeroplan members get Q miles on UA, and its express partners. Is Atlantic Coast Air an United Express susidiary of UA?


  • As far as I know, only Mileage Plus miles can be earned on UA flights operated by US Airways.

    UA flight numbers in the 2000-series are operated by US Airways.


  • I don't want to credit any more miles to my UA account. I'm not sure if I will get a chance to use them .. . . .

    Thanks for confirming the bad news http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

    YES!


  • Sounds like he hasn't flown it yet so the crediting to UA MP would work in this case. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
