SAS EuroBonus - I don't understand Eurobonus earning rates from partner airlines

I don't understand how many miles one earns when crediting flights from partner airlines.

In my example, I'm looking at a bmi flight that books into E.

According to the Eurobonus webpage,
http://www.flysas.com/en/uk/EuroBonus/Earn-points/airlines/bmi1/
E is "Low Economy" and earns a minimum of 150 miles.
Is the minimum the only difference between the fare classes or is there a hidden multiplication factor they've not shown?

I'm concerned because in bmi's programme, E is only 0.25x earning, on A3, it's 0.5x earning...whereas SAS seems to say it's 1.0x but is there a catch?

As far as I know, minimum 600 means 100% and rest you can calculate from there, so minimum 150 would suggest 25% earnings (or 150 if <=600 miles)

So somewhere there should be a reference saying that all "Low Economy" earns 0.25x?

Yeah, it really should be, be there isn't... This question on how to read the EuroBonus tables pops up once a week or so.

The translation of "minimum 150" is:


Let M be the number of miles flown and P be the number of EuroBonus points earned in Low Eco classes named in the table.

M_{EB} = max{600,100*ceil(M/100)} (or, in words: round up to nearest 100, but at least 600)

P = M_{EB}/4


Voilà!

I got 'tricked' by this once on LX flights - 100% M&M earning and 25% on EB (I checked on sas and the 150 minimum popped up). So I thought sure I should be able to get my 100% but hell no! I learnt the lesson and now I spend my time checking earning ratio for my flights at FFP sites.

I feared it was going to be something like that. Makes me quite wary of joining EB proper in that case.

Did do a search in the forum but couldn't see the answer. Is it worth adding to the lounge thread or FAQ (some places I also looked)?
