Club Points for Japan Airlines I fare
I see from the MPC website that business class buckets JCDX on JL earn (the same) CPs
Earlier this year I think, JL has (re)introduced the I class farebucket, which is priced between D and X.
Does anyone know if this I class fare bucket can also earn CPs? I have written into MPC to ask but no replies yet.
(I am asking for international flights.)
Thanks !

Bought a "Super Travel Fair" ticket earlier this year, MNL-NRT-JFK, Biz Class, USD2296 round trip. The JAL lady took my CX MPO details and remarked she was "not sure you would earn miles for this super low business class fare..." Ticket was one-way "I" return "X" class. Traveled last month Aug. Result: X class credited with miles/club points as expected, I class = nothing. FYI. YMMV.

I is a heavily discounted business class fare on JAL In JAL's own program it only earns 70% of mileage, or the same a a mid range economy ticket So it may well be intentional from CX that there are no earnings.

Thank you all. From JMB's website, it's clear that I earns the least and so, it's very possible CX made a deliberate decision to exclude I.
(I was given misinformation that I was priced between D and X, which led to my question.)
