i think he is looking at V class Flex vs lower premium class with light , so it comes out just small difference with price , however the lower premium class light give less points than the Flex. 75% of the time , i book the econ Flex for more points.
Obviously I know nothing about CX but I had a look for FRA-HKG, in V class, Flex is 60, Essential 50 and light 45. PE in E (essential) is 60? So unless one needs the flex, why book V-Flex and not E-Essential...
Particularly if credditing to IB, but live and learn for OP.
