Pro/Cons of booking flights on partner site vs united.com
Hello -
I have this itinerary.
OSL-FRA-SFO-HNL
HNL-LAX-FRA-OSL
I can book this as UA as a 1K and earn 11 miles per dollar spent but business/first fare is very reasonable (base $3847 so around 42,317).
LH is booked in J to FRA and then A to SFO and A to HNL.
Return is A, A and J.
In this case, if I book LH 220 tickets, I don't think I'd earn PQD but please confirm I'd earn the following.
250% base miles for the A class segments / PQM 150% for all flights
175% base miles for the J class segments
Plus double the actual mileage as 1K
So in this case..
OSL-HNL via SFO / HNL-OSL via LAX 17,855 x 2.5 = 44,637 plus 17,855 1K bonus = 62,492 ticketing as 220 vs 42,317 ticketing as 016.
Am I confused or do I have this right?
Thanks.
