I just booked TPE-HKG-PVG-HKG-TPE all stopovers (not transits) under Premium Economy. The two TPE-HKG and HKG-TPE sectors did not have any premium econ flights, and I would be seated in economy. The booking engine showed 86 Status Points would be earned, but did not show the Status Points of each individual flight. What did show was the TPE sectors would issue as Econ Flex B and the PVG sectors would issue as Premium Economy Flex R.
The Status Points calculator clearly shows Premium Economy Flex R would earn 30 points per sector. So, 86 points total - (30 points x 2) = 26 points remaining. Thus, this implies each of the TPE sectors earns 13 points.
However, the Status Points calculator shows Econ Flex B earning 15-25 points, and Econ Flex Light earning 3-13 points. I cannot see anywhere that Econ Flex B only earns 13 points.
So, my questions: will I ultimately get more than 86 points total, or is there a "hidden" Status Points level somewhere for Econ Flex B to/from TPE earning 13 points?
If you go to 'Manage Booking' in your Cathay membership website & input your CX # for the booking, it'll show the exact number of Asia Miles & Status Credits earned for each leg of the flight
