VFR ! This tool is amazing!
Another FB calculation error to report.
Variables:
Flying Blue - Gold
Input: YYZ-AMS-CDG-TLV-CDG-DL.Z-DTW-DL.Z-YYZ $2438
The 2 DL segments are calculating CDG-DTW 2964 and DTW-YYZ 375
Not sure how it is arriving at these numbers. Should be 6916 and 875 (based on 500 min) respectively.
I incorrectly applied the elite bonus, so that for silver it was calculating as base * 0.5 instead of base * 1.5. It should be fixed now.
Link to test case.

I seem to remember it's partner-dependent, but the Flying Blue website won't load on Lufthansa's lounge Wi-Fi for some reason...

For example:
DL CDG-DTW 3952 base miles in Z class for Gold: (3952 x 1.00) + (3952 x 0.75) = 6916
That's how it works for most airlines and how the tool was originally written.

That's how I coded the bonus (I think I read the T&Cs when I wrote it). Please let me know if you get a data point on whether it applies to partner-operated flights that are AFKL-marketed, e.g. AF*/DL.
