Where to Credit United Ticket flying on Lufthansa Metal

Hello,

I’m flying soon the following route:
Sfo-fra-lin (class S)
Fco-muc-sfo (class w)

Ticket is a United ticket (starts with 016).
All flights operated by Lufthansa.

Total miles should be 12,349 (per mapper)

I’m United Gold. So I should be getting 8x the fare paid, correct? No additional bonuses?

Being this a United ticket, if I wanted to credit the mileage to my Singapore KrysFlier account instead will I be earning 100% (so 12,349 KrysFlier miles) per their United accrual chart? Or because it’s a Lufthansa operated flight will the KrysFlier accrual go by the Lufthansa partner chart instead, so 50%)?

Thanks!
Leonardo

[USER=522]@PhatMiles[/USER] Thank you! I had forgotten about that post from Ben. Very informative.

[USER=79]@Gaurav[/USER] So if I understand correctly it’s the airline that markets the flight that counts, so in my case on wheretocredit.com i should look at United chart being a United ticket and not LH, right? That’s the confusing part, sorry for the silly repetitive question.
