Thanks
yes, you get full miles in your account, but only 1/2 EQM (Alliance Miles) towards MVP/MVPGold Status when on LUT fares
incidentally, i must edit my previous post....just announced today that NW is going back to the 50% LUT fare thing. they had it, got rid of it, and are implementing it again effective Nov 18
NW link here
guess DL is pressuring its partners....cant blame AS for it
