Thank you! United is also in the high $500+ range. Munich-IST is Lufthansa L class.. a bit confused whether that yields PQM - is Istanbul considered Europe or not with Lufthansa/UA? Thanks!

IST is considered part of Europe as far as I know.

I've been wondering this as well! I was thinking of perhaps going over Thanksgiving.

As for inflight meals, IST-FRA is considered an intra-European route

Nonstop on Turkish Air only. Quite a few dates throughout the rest of the year (ITA flex search), and a handful of days at $611 and $615 as well. Going in to next year I see wide availability from Jan - March.

Question Tango fare
Is the fare class Tango? If so, best to take UA (the routing may alos yield better cpm since they cancelled the non-stop EWR-IST

L fare class update
Bumping my own post. AC fare of 522 books in L class i.e. not upgradable. S class fare is 700

UA books at 565, also L class, on LH via MUC, or Swiss via ZRH.

Does L class accrues 100 % miles flown on LH. If so, looks to be 5 cpm.

After yesterdays downgrades in Air Canada mileage program who cares what AC mileage runs are getting there are worthless.

People like yourself who can credit an L-fare at 100% to UA instead?
