Booking an Air India SFO to BLR PE tickets ($1400) (Fare basis: EL2PWRSF - E Class I presume). Air India is crediting around 8000 Maharaja points. Seems like United will credit 100% miles for E class for the miles flown (Around 8700 miles one way). So, this means I will get around 17000 miles. This process is interesting.
