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.

The price is from Ltur LH last minute where I buy my LH W tickets 7 days before departure. If there is availability in W, the ticket usually shows up on Ltur. The LH mileage is from meilenrechner.de where it shows 8.798 miles for status members on return in W or S.

Sorry for getting OT. Ofcourse there are no flysmarts in asia, but asians also have no real interest in signing up for LH M&M or UA M+. The local *A programmes make more sense.
