Lufthansa Flights & Velocity

[bagman]

Hi there
I’m looking at booking some flights to Europe with Lufthansa via Singapore Airlines.
Can I earn Velocity FF points and SC’s flying with SIA but Lufthansa flight numbers ?

Appreciate your advice.

Many thanks

Cheers

No
Must be SQ operated with either a SQ or VA number

@Mattg's suggestion on another thread may be of some relevance?

RTW Swiss and United. Want to use points in Australia and south pacific. Virgin doesn't credit Swiss. Any thoughts on best FF programme to use ?

Ok, here goes.
Lufthansa is a *A member, so you can earn SQ KF miles, by joining KF if you are not already a member.
Put in your KF # into the Lufthansa booking.
Earn KF miles.
Then transfer those KF miles to VFF.
Its not a 1:1 so you do loose some points/miles in the transfer.
I flew AirNZ several times, and this was before I joined Airpoint$, so was earning KF miles from the AirNZ flights.
Had nearly 10,000 KF miles all up, then SQ stopped flying MEL - WLG and the Pandemic came, so I had to stop flying.
My points have been used for spoons and Krisflyer Vrooms, but could also have been tranferred to VFF, which I didn't do, but could have done.
