I would really like to do this because I am around Geneva at that time and have a day or two spare. The trouble is getting back, not just to GVA but anywhere in Switzerland or Germany, which is a bit too dear for a one way flight. The combination would bring up to a decent special offer price for the round trip. Haven't yet checked other dates. Malaga is a surprisingly pleasant place with a great (and not too overwhelming) Picasso museum.

Swiss Airlines, on Friday's and Mondays €45 OW (38,04 via Exbir Flugsuche on Nov. 9)
sample dates: Nov. 6, 9, 13, 16, 20, 23, 27, 30
http://www.kayak.de/flights/AGP,near...11-06-flexible
you could for example do GVA-AGP and back on:
Nov. 16 (arrive 12.00) and return Nov. 16 (depart 12.40), or return Nov. 20 (€17,15+€38,04 = €55,19 when you book as separate one ways (Nov. 16 return); booking a round trip Nov. 16 - 20 seems to give €53,19 when you put in as one return). At this price it's still 3.4 cpm (1714 miles)
Easyjet has a decent price for one way too... but why fly Easyjet if you can fly Swiss?
Also via www.exbir.de/flugsuche
Sample date: 48,79 (Easyjet) Dec. 5
AGP-GVA

Hi guys
Newbie question coming up:
I was under the impression that LX awards miles for intra european flights solely based on the booking class?
Meaning: Depending on what class I book I am expecting to receive either 125/500/750 or 1250 miles (in Economy), but never 857?
Thanks for clarifying.
