What do you think? A bit too expensive for 19k miles before exec bonus, isn't it?
This appears not to be optimized and it appears to have o/w and open jaws in it. I assume it is

MUC-GVA-ZRH-VIE-ZRH-MUC
ZRH-DUS
DUS-ZRH-CDG-GVA-ZRH

I believe your TA should try:

MUC-GVA-ZRH-VIE-ZRH-DUS-GVA-ZRH-CDG-GVA-ZRH-DUS-ZRH-GVA-MUC.

This combines

MUC-GVA-ZRH-VIE-ZRH-GVA-MUC
ZRH-DUS-ZRH
DUS-GVA-ZRH-CDG-GVA-ZRH-DUS

Nice and clear return tickets. I haven't priced it, but it should be about 2*700 Euro plus about 400 SFR for the Ex-Switzerland ticket. This should be 24.000 miles before Bonus. However, 1400 Euro is not bad either for a big pile of status miles in a short period of time.
