Generally speaking, no - what are the flight numbers?

VS specifically exclude most codeshares from the list of eligible partner flights.

But they do include some? This goes against normal FFP logic; hence interesting. Has anyone earned miles/TPs on a booking with a BD flight number operated by LH?

I flew to Cologne with LH on a BM flight number some years ago, but seem to remember I got the miles because I entered my FC number at the time of booking. I suspect handing it over at check-in might get you that frosty German reaction as though you just invaded Poland.

I have about 30 flights to claim as my VS Miles account number on the BMI booking didn't have any effect - FC told me last week to send all my boarding cards to them with a claim letter and they would credit the miles. I believe that European BMI flights accrue about 1000 miles return, I'm guessing that this now disappears though!

Until it changes, there's no change ... you get VS miles and TPs on several Star Alliance airlines (but obviously not LH currently), be interesting to see if LH pull the plug on BMI-VS, until and if they launch services to compete directly with VS at LHR this may not change ...
