Why are EY flights with a VAFF number appearing on my QFF Account

[MYT105]

I am flying with EY SYD-AUH-LHR, so crediting the flights to VA, but I just logged on to my QFF account and the EY bookings are showing there, with my VA number.

It is my first time flying EY so not sure is this normal? As they won't load on my VAFF account, but appear automatically on my QFF one.

EI is Aer-Lingus, a former One World member.

Maybe if your EY flights are showing in QFF then the rumours of a tie up between EY & QF have some basis?

Who has made the booking for your self?
Could have QFF details in there somewhere.

As I understand it, EY use Altea, so somehow this has been hooked up to your QFF account.

There are a bunch of fields that could contain your QFF number, and somehow its been matched up!

Have you flown EY before when they were a QFF codeshare??

No I haven't flown EY before that is why I wasn't sure how it automatically linked. Would be nice if there was a tie up as I would prefer to earn the QF SC's rather then VA SC's.

Yes I meant EY not EI, have edited to change it, I also have some EI flights, but they aren't appearing, or letting me add them even with my QFFF number on the bookings.

It was made by my works corporate travel agent. There is nothing on the paperwork I got showing my QFFF number but it is possible as they are in there system, it jsut shows my VAFF number on the paperwork, and also on the QF booking site info.
