AnonymousHi Ben
I’m not sure if you have addressed this question in the past, my apologies if you have. I’m curious how an airline makes money out of a booking that is made using another airline’s FF scheme. To be specific, I have booked a first class flight Mel-Lon with Qantas but am using points I purchased from AA. How does Qantas make anything from that?Just curious.
Regards
