Award miles yes. But you only get "25% of the earned award miles as status miles"

This is a good fare if you earn on M&S

Similar prices at more or less 1100 / 1300 € to YUL, JFK, ORD, IAD
1,500€ to IAH or LAX
1,450€ to EZE, GRU

Seriously? Full-boat J on TK only earns 25% in M&M? That is terrible.

A disincentive for LH members flying TK to say the least ... Thank you for the fare OP.

I think that is exactly the intention.

Cheap tactics for an airline (LH) which doesn't know how else to adjust to the realities of competition (TK).

25% status miles, as mentioned above , award miles you get 150%.

If it is not a re-qualification year, it is OK.

The fare is amazing. Have you managed to find alternative departure airports for a similar price?
I do see the same price out of VNO. Anything else?

You're right, I didn't check it correctly.

No, I searched for flights to Canada only, tried with OJ but nothing interesting.

That was a unilateral decision made on Lufthansa's side to prevent their Senator members from flying Turkish Airlines, who clearly offer a better product at a lower price.
