Earning on CO ticketed VS flights

Just a quick question, sorry if its come up before but I did a search and nothing came up.

If you book flights with CO that include VS metal flights, will FC credit you miles and TP's (obviously at the partner levels)?

Thanks

Yes; but FC is nationalistic. UK members will earn 200% in Business Class (BusinessFirst) on all UK/US routes. US members only earn 150%

I think it depends on the flight designation on your ticket. From the Flying Club terms and conditions http://www.virgin-atlantic.com/en/gb/frequentflyer/tsandcs/partnertermsandconditions.jsp:

15.2 Continental Airlines:
Continental Airlines: Code share services operated by Continental Airlines with tickets bearing a 'VS' flight prefix will earn miles. Tickets with 'CO' prefix will not qualify for miles.

However, it is not totally explicit about codeshare flights on VS metal which is what you are after Ed.
