As an LH M&M member LH is only giving me 100% credit for the flights. They argue it was booked as a P and that means it was a Business Class booking. I'm trying to understand as previously all UA First Class flights seemed to have been booked as an F or an A fare. So...are P fares normal for domestic First? Want to avoid loosing out on tons of miles in the future since I got screwed out of close to 14k miles due to the P fare ticketing for a First Class booking.
P is a normal domestic First fare. Note, however, that internationally, P is a Business fare.
