Does anyone know which discounted *A J fares to the US or Thailand will earn me some points. As far as I understand LH/LX/OS in P or Z earn me 0 miles. I don t need 150% or even 200% but at least 50% would be nice.

The typical search engine let me search for Enconmy class or Business class but did not let me search for lets say "J" or "P"

This not really helps, since it is way to complicated to search trough all the airline websites and to figure into wich booking classes certain tickets book. Specialy since you are not going to book a "booking class" you are going to book a certain ticket - and this randomly maps into certain booking classes, which you only see after you bought the ticket.

all business fares are at least 100percent of earning (OS, LX), only Lufthansa P is 0%

Recent experience with mileage credit for LX / LH air rail "flights" ?
Does anyone have recent data points on collecting miles from LX or LH air rail flights? These "flights" in my case would be trains from e.g. BSL to ZRH (or FRA) with flight numbers like LX74xx (or LH34xx). I would book the rail flight on the LX web site when booking tickets like BSL to VLC, where one flight segment is a rail flight.
Many years ago, these air rail flights had resulted in some mileage credit... has anyone successfully received miles with A3 for such a flight in the past few months?

For next week, I've booked LH flights to VLC with a train "flight" segment from Freiburg to FRA. Once the miles are credited to M&B, I'll post the outcome here.

Recent is realtive, last time I took a flight at FL0 was pre-COVID.
They used to credit them the same way as domestic LH flights (which is way more generous than M&M).
Very nice if you're flying in PE and the feeders book into Y (I did MHJ-FRA-MUC-NYC).
I don't know how they handle the LX and OS trains, but should theoretically be the same.

Mileage credit for LH express rail "flights"
As announced, here is one recent data point on mile collection for LH express rail "flights":
The QFB Airport clearly reveals this is a train ride. However, miles were properly credited for the rail segment (LH3433) as per the normal A3 earnings chart:

TP doesn't print the fare class on the boarding passes. Might be the same for TK. Y often refers to the cabin (economy) rather than the highest fare therein.
TP is known to also be extremely intransparent when it comes to mileage credit to FFPs (for anything other than Business).
My hunch is that you were travelling on non-earning fares and are misreading the boarding passes.

The Y might just be an internal code for showing the class but its not the final booking class
