almschi, thanx for your info :-) ^
*highly theoretical pondering mode on*
together with the rtf-offers in sweden and ARN as destination one could imagine to make a rtf-milagerun through europe :-)
e.g.
sat NUE-FRA|MUC-ARN ARN-FRA|MUC-FCO
sun: FCO-FRA|MUC-ARN ARN-FRA|MUC-NUE
if there is a rtf-offer from italy as well there could be the possibility to add another roundtrip ex fco.
together with a cheapo extra seat on each ticket (as discussed in this thread) you could earn as ftl/sen up to 18750 status miles for three cheapo rtf-tix (as hon even 22500 miles)
*highly theoretical pondering mode off*
but in the end - who would waste a whole weekend flying around the continent - just for the miles ???
cheers

how many miles for 3 "cheap-o"-RTFs? Base mileage for a connection roundtrip for 160 EUR is 2500 miles, so I count 7500 miles, plus status bonus for FTL/SEN thats not even 10000 miles. As you were talking about status miles, I dont think you took into account any promos.
Well, for FCO being among tomorrows destinations... Don't all those Italian fussball supporters have to go HOME tomorrow after the Italian team lost against Germany tonight? So there shouldnt really be any seats..

so where can i buy that cheapo extra ticket?only via LH telephone i suppose, so they can apply the non-tax/surcharge thing. but how do i get the same cheap booking class as RTF? thought they are only bookable through www. i hope we can bring light into this, as it is an interesting, creative way... can be especially important towards to end of the year to reach the status renewal...

Therefore, RtF offers are not possible to book without paying the taxes...
