What is your booking code? There should be a letter code, not just economy

Great thread!  Is a wiki asking for too much already?
The wiki is for everyone's question to have the same format so it's easier to read.

I am based in Israel and frequently fly on Business ElAl (for work). Should I credit miles to AA instead of Matmid?
Does anyone know how many AA miles you'd get on a ElAl TLV-JFK (say on a Z class), I know it's 350 Matmid points but no clue about AA?
Many thanks!
