wouldn't you check AA's website on what they earn if you are crediting the miles there? Or no?
Nope.

Earn miles when flying on EL AL marketed and operated flights for travel on an eligible published fare ticket. Miles are also earned on EL AL codeshare flights operated by American Airlines.

Edit:
That's what BAHayman linked to, AA's website.
Oh, I thought he meant as opposed to this page.

Go here while logged in to an AA.com account and search for your itinerary with your AA flight number (LY 8035 is AA 64). Then you can select you seats on AA as well as chose Kosher meals. It also shows fare classes.

on expedia:

log in
go to 'My Itineraries' (top of page)
click on your itinerary
will say Economy/Coach ( ) - (in the brackets will be your booking code)
That booking code only works for LY, AA has a different code.

FWIW my booking is in fare class N for JFK-ZRH and LHR-JFK and G for ZRH-TLV and TLV-LHR. According to this page, they earn 50% mileage.

Does Swiss give more than 50% for the flights that are Swiss Air based?

It says "Economy/Coach Class (30H, 31H, 31J, 30J), Breakfast, Boeing 767-300"
So my fare class is.... H? or J? or those my seating rows?  ???
Thanks so much

Dunno.

I believe it goes by who issued the ticket regardless of who the operating carrier is.

Which actually makes a lot of sense now as to why I didn't get United miles last time flying that exact route with Elal on Swiss aircraft.
Thanks for clearing that up!

What are the chances El Al will allow me to change my return for 3 days early if same class of service is available with no fare difference?

Would this have been able to be booked with thank you points?

I have a lot of thank you points sitting around

Booked 4 tickets.

I made a mistake with the birthday on 1 ticket ( typed 22 instead of 21 in day of month) on 1 ticket.

Is it a problem?

What should I do?
