Or, buy the ticket directly from Lufthansa on their ticket stock, with their LH flight number and simply credit to my MP account? I just can’t seem to find where on the United website it clearly spells this out, but I’m guessing it does if I click enough links… Thanks in advance.
For a full fare C, likely better on UA 016 ticket stock, but best to check both ways using the non-016 PQP calculator, use this only for non-016 tickets of partner flights
