4580 miles http://www.mapcrow.info/cgi-bin/citi...city2=&cntry2=

However, for the above flight Iberia (oneworld) only gave me 80 points (between 3001 to 4500 miles). Is there objective any way to complain?
Call their FF program desk and ask them how many miles it is from HEL-PVG. If they give you an answer of more than 4500 miles, then ask why you weren't credited the full points for that. If they answer less than 4500, then there will be little you can do--you can ask why they credit too few miles, but it's their discretion to set the miles value.
