For partners with 500 mile minimums, is that the real minimum?
Quick question for a newbie flying LX: I'll be flying LX from JNB - PRG on fare class L. Will I earn 0 or 500 PQM? I'm a bit confused on the guidance provided on the UA website: http://www.united.com/CMS/en-US/mark...spx?ItemId=297

The table does not list "L" as the fare class for earning PQM, but the footnote states that "Premier members earn a minimum of 500 Premier qualifying miles on all eligible purchased fare classes." So is "L" class not an "eligible" purchased fare class or not?

Also, UA rep told me I won't even get any RDM on this trip (which is not what is posted on UAL website where I should get 50%).

So does anyone have any first-hand experience whether I will get any PQM and RDM on LX flight on L fare class??
