Thanks, that is wonderfully helpful! Brings down the cost (obviously) but in my specific case still doesn't make sense to buy miles since the cost is $.03 oer mile. But I will keep checking. Thanks!

Starting March 1, 2018 K class earns 100% PQM (no PQS) and 25% award miles on United. This was a surprise as I recently flew from FRA to IAH on K class on the LH flight and switched my FF program to LH miles and more on that segment but left it on UA for my spouse. My spouse's UA program showed 25% award miles plus Gold bonus and 100% PQM. MP has also changed the earnings on other fares, mostly higher now.

I booked a K class fare that was also the more expensive "Flex" fare. The booking page claims that you get 150% miles. I used my United MP FF# on the reservation. Do you think I will get 150% United miles or is only with Lufthansa/Austrian M&M?

thx,

Depends how K on M&M maps into UA MP.
