thats what I mentioned in my posts earlier, the through tickets I have had on VX have only earned 1 set of TP's even though I had connecting flights/different flight no's

VS200 and VS201 (from LHR-HKG-SYD and the return) are good examples here. You earn TPs as if it were two different flights (double the one ways) even though they have the same flight number.
Whilst technically a through fare is given as an all the way fare from A-C; A-B and B-C are diff flights and as such you should earn for miles travelled. My source for this lot is the amount of times I have connected in the US travelling through a gateway city and then on from there... all sectors earning miles and TPs (if applicable) - US Airways I will miss you from the VS partners list :#

Penny, I have a feeling that it is just VX communicating the wrong information, if the fare class you were flying on was an earning one for both sectors that is. You should have earned TPs and miles for the LAS-SFO and then the SFO-BOS sectors. They are completely different flights and as you say have diff flight numbers.. still got your BPs to send off to VS? :w
