When I called BMI a few weeks ago about a ZRH-VCE booking in Business, I was told that there were no mimimum miles, so ZRH-VCE would have netted me a paltry 452 miles each way (with LH M&M it's 2000 miles flat rate + Executive bonus). Seems a bit unequal.

Here is the table - http://www.flybmi.com/bmi/en-gb/diam...s/flights.aspx

As you can see, there is a minimum of 600 miles (All bmi UK domestic flights and partner flights of less than 600 miles in distance 600 miles earned for each one way)

Thus, ZRH-VCE is 600 mininum miles x 2 for business = 1'200 miles per segment. Not very appealing, compared to the 2'000 miles which you get if you collect with the M&M program @:-)
