I’m finding it a bit confusing to be honest. This implies you earn points (it doesn’t specifically state Qualifying Points but I am assuming so) at a rate of 12 per €1 spent on ITA flights as a Premium then there is additional accelerators to also calculate which are based on your cabin and destination.

So a €2,000 business fare (let’s assume net of taxes for completeness) from Rome to JFK would earn:

2000 x 12 = 24,000

Plus 50% as it is in business, a further 20% as it is ‘intercontinental’, and a final 20% top up if it is a ‘classic’ fare. That’s a top up of 90%.

This would mean the one flight is worth 45,600 QPs if my maths is correct. Is it?
