Look up the BD earning table for Lufthansa operated flights, and M class earns x0.5 miles, hence you earn 300 miles.

OK, except the actual distance is only about 300miles so that calculation doesn't work.
It seems ridiculous that 101 pounds on babybmi gets me 900 points
1 night in a 4 star hotel @ 100 euro gets me 750 points
but this flight at a cost of 450 pounds yeilds only 300 points
A couple of years ago I would fly LHR to Dublin on restricted business and get 1600 points each way, and the ticket was cheaper.
There seems to be no consistancy.
