I booked my ticket through American Airlines - partner to Etihad - and was told categorically that ALL flights would earn miles which would be posted to my AA Advantage account. Upon my return to the US, I learnt rather rudely that the leg from Chicago to Abu Dhabi( and the subsequent return) was not eligible for whatever reason. After much back and forth with AA, I registered with Etihad Guest thinking that it shouldn't be a problem for me to at least get miles with Etihad. But no, that would have been too easy, and I heard from Etihad that they wouldn't give me the miles because I hadn't signed up with Etihad Guest prior to taking my flights. How is that fair???
Cazzi, I hope you can help me with this. Thank you.
