I regularly fly business from US to Perth and get 200 from DFW to Syd - 80 from Syd - Per and around 20 flying bus from somewhere in the US to DFW, so around 300 status credits for a one way, 600 for RT.
Are there any flights that you have flown where you have gotten more than this for a bus flight? I know 1st will generate more credits.
Just curious
Thanks
Given that SCs are earnt per flight sector, then it is the total number - and lengths - of sectors that make up the flight that will determine the total number of SCs, regardless of whether the flight is OW or RT.
As to whether any particular Business Class route would beat 300 SCs (600SCs return), I've recently been pricing various J options to the UK. The best I can come up with is a MEL-BKK-MEL return coupled with a BKK-MAN return.
MEL-SYD-BKK (QF)
BKK-HKG (CX)
HKG-HEL (AY)
HEL-LHR/MAN (AY/BA)
Netts 400SCs oneway at around or 800 SCs return for about AU$7000 (I'm sure someone else could come up with cheaper).
