AM: AMS-MEX-EZE from €2060 and earn 8250 MQDs or 132 XPs!

Flights start at €2060 and would earn 41252 RDMs 30939 MQMs 8250 MQDs 3.53 MQD Ratio for flyers crediting to Delta...

Flying Blue members would obtain 132 XPs (AMS-MEX 36*2) and (MEX-EZE 30*2) , don't know the RDM calculation for partners , the website makes Delta math seem easy haha!

Sample Flights

What a deal.

The AM 787-9 is the best business class seat I've flown.

It's not a bad deal, for business class travel anyway, but for Flying Blue it works out at about €15 per XP which is not hugely brilliant. I like to get it under €10 if possible.

Thanks for €10 value, to be honest, today is the first time I've posted a deal with calculated XPs. From the other deal I posted today AMS-Mexico , I learned a bit more of the rough numbers that create XP Runs... seems Multi-city Intra-Continent (Europe, Central America or Asia) or Multi-Country hops are the best value...
But to get 132 XPs in one shot, could be of use to those that want to redeem for Air France First Class and need FB Silver to do so... (if there is any data sheet on Partners for XP from an RDM perspective, let me know!)

I understand "value" in TP Runs for BA and I've done a lot of work on automatizing Delta MQD calculations DeltaMQDs (pre-MVP version, still working on the front end) so MQD calculations come as second nature but XPs were a new one for me

Don't take it badly, it's all good and it's really great to read about what you discovered here. I struggle with it myself and I am sure a lot of experts here do too, but they don't let on. I sort of feel €10 per single XP is a convenient benchmark, so if I can get it under €10 per XP I feel I am doing well.
