you are buying your tickets wrong then. With 150k miles and J/A travel you ought to get 1K with PQDs. Start buying your LH flights on 016 UA tickets. You will get more miles and you will earn 1K which in turn will make you earn even more. Buy UA codeshare to start with, or otherwise buy tickets on united.com.
