Then it comes down to: Does LH qualify TLV to be a European Route, or a Worldwide Route. According to https://www.lufthansa.com/us/en/book...omy/pricezones TLV is a zone 2 route, not European, so for Economy Y, B, M, H, U(100%), W, Q, V, S (50%), K, L, T (25%) x ~1830 should apply.

Otherwise it should be a fixed mileage based on the booking class: Y, B (1250), H, M, U (750),Q, V (500), S, W (250), K, L, T (125)

But I'm not 100% sure. I bet @oliver2002 will come in sooner or later and confirm or correct
Casablanca (CMN) and Marrakech (RAK) and Agadir (AGA) aren't on the list but I know out of experience those routes credit according to international non europen flights.
I'm surprised Baku (BKU) is listed, but Tbilisi (TBS) isn't, despite the two cities being pretty much next to each other.
I once tried looking up the definiton per IATA zone, but results were inconclusive as TBS and CMN etc. are both listed in european and the other corresponding zone, but as mentioned CMN gives miles per distance.
So since CMN gives miles as non european flight I'm pretty sure TLV does too.
