I think the reason behind all this mess is LH management, which is the obvious one to push UA to increase their mileage redemption levels to be in line to LH M&M levels and to stop those bloggers who brag about flying LH F class for $2K across the Atlantic and heading to the far east. LH is the DEVIL.
What does this has to do with US and LH?
UA increases redemption rate in almost every category and all *A partners.
It's because of SMI/J.
