Vienna to LHR double status miles question
Hi,
I 'm actually around 5000 miles short for BMI G
I 'm considering a MR with double status promotion from BMI using VIE-LHR return.
I know the C class one way should normally give 1600 as status, return is 3200. So the double promotion should get me around 6400 status miles for this MR? Could someone confirm this?
I actually has a C long-haul planned in next Jan, (still with in my quali-year), but just in the fear of MM migration.
Should I wait until this bmiFriday to try to get a cheaper fare VIE-LHR (what are the chances of getting one for the next weekend, i.e. Nov 5th-7th, and do they offer VIE-LHR cheap C fare comparing to LHR-VIE?)
Thanks!

I had a OS flight booked as BD code share and I got twice the status miles for OS flights as well. only catch was that I got 4x miles flown (LHR-VIE is some 700 odd miles), not 3200 miles as this was not a BD operated flight.
