The issue with the miles and Flex vs Saver being shown is being discussed in another thread- so check your eticket to seee if it is a saver or flex- as the one showing seems wrong more time than not.

What are your other options? BA - you will get 25% of miles in discounted Economy and few tier points - QR - discounted economy is 50% of miles also. TG also doesnt (AFAIK) Who is going to give you full miles?

There are many threads that are coming up on how everyone will leave EK -- and go where? EK is one of the last ones to reduce the number of miles for dscounted tickets. EK is in business to make money- lets get over the issue of them killing their business by this- Lets reduce the number of Golds and look forward to being REWARDED in 2011 with improved benefits for the fewer golds that will be around.

I think with the miles accelerator and a few good loop holes I have found on a couple routes I actually will get more miles - and a probably more tier miles due to the increase in bonus for J and F.
