This would have been a nice start, but it's in G class. Shame.

I was looking at a ticket on SQ.

It books into Q class but it doesnt show that class on the earn mile list.
Should I presume its not eligible?

for those living/traveling to/from israel in the near future on *A, just credit 1 RT and you should almost nail it depending on final destination/fare class.
does this make sense, i think tlv nyc/vicinity is only around 11k rt?? you'll need around 2 rt and even on business at 150% one wont suffice.

Just wanna point out AC AP awards *A Gold with 35k and Silver with 25k. Although this is only for 1 year, they are more generous than A3 with booking classes (i.e. Aegean only gives 25-50% miles on discounted fares on some airline, whereas AP gives 100% on more fares). Also, their miles are actually worth something

Will Aegean do a status match with Continental? I am currently platinum, but will be losing it in March.

But they require you to fly AC metal.

Didn't realize that :-(, still they only require 10k/5 segments on AC metal so I can see it being a good idea for some.

Effective 2012 you need 50K for *G with Aeroplan.  They have a whopping 5 status levels, 25, 35, 50, 75, and 100.  Only 50+ get *G from now on.

a friend of mine, signed up by aegean, but only gave an initial as first name.

after crediting the flight, they renamed him to his full first name as displayed on ticket.

that says something about the attentiveness and/or size of their center.

Once i hit gold on aegean air and check in say for a CO flight taking advantage of *G benefits, is there any reason the gate wouldn't agree to change the FFN to my CO one so I can get the mileage posted to CO?

I know it's been discussed in this thread, just looking for a conclusive answer.
