That would be the easiest solution, but does it actually work? I assume that German programmes such as Miles & More and Bahn Bonus pay tax, but what if someone credits a flight to a foreign programme? The obvious case would be when not flying on a Lufthansa partner airline (like AF or AY), but there are probably some people who prefer Eurobonus for Star Alliance flights.

I think the points could count as a bribe if you hold certain important positions.
