Watch your Mileage Plus statement, though, since sometimes the computer doesn't recognize the class of fare bonus (they show it as "K" class). In such cases, you have to send a copy of the ticket (or the receipt) showing the "Y" or "B" class to the Mileage Plus Service Center in order to get the 1.5 instead of 1.0 credit.
I did get the bonus when I went to SFO in September.

I won't get it when I go to Germany though, as I'm booked on an H class ticket. Couldn't get them to let me pay the $200 out of my own pocket to get the Y class ticket.

Also, here's a question. If, by some fluke, I get offered to buy an upgrade to C, would I get the bonus as they were "paid" miles, or would I just get the cushier seat?
