Just be sure that earning miles on Edelweiss Air, but with SWISS numbers in the 8000 series, will actually yield the miles and bonuses hoped for. I'm always a bit canny about these sort of flights on Star Alliance. Codeshare or franchise? Codeshare I suspect, but with special conditions (like GVA-CDG op by AF)?

Anyone tried to route this via GRU as opposed to EZE to get actual LX metal? I haven't had time to play with it yet, but the 200% PQMs for Mileage Plus would make that much more appealing on the TATL portion. I get about 30,700 PQMs if the rules allow it to be routed that way. Or is getting P inventory to GRU too difficult?

The fare is available on LX mainline via GRU and AV from there to BOG. However, you need (married segment) AMS-ZRH-GRU availability in P which is rare.
WK connections via MIA and SJO also work.
(The higher PQM earn on LX mainline is somewhat offset by the greater distance for ZRH-EZE-BOG)

I finally started to look into it more, quite a few connection cities allowed on the fare, but GRU would provide the highest PQM for Mileage Plus folks (by a long shot).
Checked a few random dates, seems that the P availability to GRU is fine, even with the married segment issue.
Not sure yet how I'm going to work in positioning to AMS yet but this a very attractive run for me.
