So if I understand:
BRU-FRA-BOS (operated by LH): UA gave me a reservation code gives me access to the LH website and LH informations: Business (Z)
If I take M&M: BRU-FRA: 2K, FRA-BOS: 3670x2 = 7340miles
Total 9340+2335 (25%) = 11,675miles
If I take A3*G: BRU-FRA: 1.7K, FRA-BOS: 3670x2 = 7340miles
total 9040miles

BOS-ORD-BRU (operated by UA) United First (Z) + United BusinessFirst (Z).
If I take M&M: BOS-ORD: 867x2 = 1734, ORD-BRU: 4160x2 = 8320miles
total 10054+2513 (25%) = 12567miles
If I take A3*G: BOS-ORD: 867x2 = 1734, ORD-BRU: 4160x2 = 8320miles
total 10054miles

Total M&M: 24242miles
Total A3*G: 19094 miles

correct?
