a W fare only earns half the miles right? so you would end up with 5699 + 25% =7123 miles.
it depends on the time, i checked prices for july and june japan to germany. prices on LH = 800euro to 1300euro.
so it was a nice hint for me. and as i having fun in visiting new cities, i dont care if i have stopover
LH miles give you only a bang if you are in europe. in asia there are no fly smarts.
