Trying to calculate SC earn between NAN and YVR flying FJ J. QF website doesn't seem to recognize this as route? Any tips on how to calculate this please (besides looking at the miles table and finding out the SC earn)?

Try SFO or LAX?

Try SFO or LAX?

NAN to SFO and LAX works. But no dice for NAN-YVR ... this leg is operated by FJ only.

QF website says there is a QF codeshare between NAN and YVR, but this can only be searched as CR from QF website, not as commercial fare.

AI tells me that NAN-YVR will earn 180SC in J ... how trustable is this info? can't verify ...

Do you need to put a C in front of YVR? I tried both ways but no joy. AI pulled up the following….

AI pulled up the following….

AI gave me the below - 180SC



However, my logic is GCMapper says the distance between NAN and YVR is 5,866mi.

Looking at QF partner table in the below link - it seems J will earn 140SC ? I will use this figure for my planning, unless someone else has a better/concrete method to calculate ?

Not sure I get this ... why do we need to put a C in front of YVR?

Miles table is it (a limitation of the calculator, which lacks many, many routes) but 140SC and 7125 points is also my reading.
