Not quite. That is a K fare as stated, so it'll earn 25% mileage. Mileage flown is approx 11606 miles, so you'll earn 2901 redeemable miles and that means you'll earn 580 PQP (Cost per PQP - 68.6207 cents).


If you are flying the other way on Swiss, you'd be better off flying to London for $370 roundtrip because the cost per PQP is a little lower - https://www.google.com/travel/flight...ymTK4vGdZtFhL6

That is also a K fare. Mileage flown is approx 11424 miles, so you'll earn 2856 redeemable miles and that means you'll earn 571 PQP (Cost per PQP - 64.7986 cents)


However, if you're just interested in an economy class mileage run, Turkish to Copenhagen with an immediate turnaround or 1 night stay is $596 roundtrip and it books into the V fare code - https://www.google.com/travel/flight...MhpJ9bKueC8vt9

Mileage flown is approx 11734 miles, so you'll earn 5867 miles and you'll earn 977 PQP (Cost per PQP - 61.0031 cents)

Alternatively, you can choose an E fare code for the outbound and a V fare code for the inbound for $713 and you'll earn 1144 PQP because you'll run into the 500 PQP per segment cap (Cost per PQP - 62.3252 cents)


You could get a Turkish roundtrip to Madrid with a Q fare code for $781 roundtrip. Mileage Flown - 12666 miles, Mileage earned - 9499, PQP - 1424 because you'll run into the PQP cap (Cost per PQP - 54.8455 cents)
