Does TK give 100% of the miles even in W class?

Seems nice

Trying to get into India this seems like a reasonable fare, then just find a way there; where are you booking this on and dates, Turkish Air is not showing anything from July-Sept.

Hey, that's good to know. I saw some great fare and thought about booking but hesitated a little bit because wasn't sure if I would get 100% of the miles on TK.

For example: ORD-IST-SIN r/t $1023 AI, booking class W, T, with dates in Feb. 2014

Very cheap for this route especially on TK. Now I feel more comfortable about booking.

Thanks.

Where can you find this information?
Is it based on distance, route, booking class*?
*I didn't think there could be different classes within a class.

As far as I know this only aplies to the promotional tickets advertised on the starting page of the TK website,at the right side of the page under the Twingo logo,theese fares do not acrue miles,ewen in bussines class,all others should,but then again theese are often extremly cheap fares (99 euro to Spain/Portugal rt etc!!)
