End 2017 (FB old rules, AF-coded, platinum), a LHR-CDG-HKG and return gave me a total of 39,558 status miles:
LHR-CDG (J) : 1,875 miles
CDG-HKG (F) : 17,904
HKG-CDG (F) : 17,904
CDG-LHR (J) : 1,875
You need to add to those the Class bonus.
I think the cost of this ticket was about 4K. So, applying new rules for a platinum member, I would have earned 32 K award miles. For Explorer, Silver or Gold members, the difference between old and new rules would be much higher of course.
