50,000 Bonus Miles

I just received this new Personnal Promotion:


How many miles you earn
************************
For your accumulated international flights in Europe in
SWISS Business Class between October 1 and December 15

2 flights 2 500 Bonus Miles
4 flights 5 000 Bonus Miles
6 flights 7 500 Bonus Miles
8 flights 10 000 Bonus Miles
10 flights 15 000 Bonus Miles
12 flights 20 000 Bonus Miles
14 flights 25 000 Bonus Miles
16 flights 30 000 Bonus Miles
18 flights 40 000 Bonus Miles
20 or more flights 50 000 Bonus Miles

Dear XX

We would be delighted to again have you as a Business Class
passenger as often as in the past. This is why were doing
everything to provide you with the type of service you
appreciate, both on the ground and in the air. And this is
also why were making you a special offer: You receive many
additional Bonus Miles when you choose SWISS Business Class
for your flights within Europe. See above for details.

Please note:
* This offer is for you personally - as member QGXXXXXX. It is
not transferable, either within your family or company.
* 1 flight = 1 take-off/landing. Example:
1x Munich - Zurich - Barcelona return = 4 flights. Flights
within Switzerland are not part of this promotion.
* The Bonus Miles are credited to your miles account after
the promotion ends.


Any comments??

Not really worth going out of one's way, but enough to tip a trip Swiss' way everything else being equal?

I think the extremely generous Qualiflyer offers of the past year may have been necessary during the Swissair >Crossair >Swiss transition period, but cannot have made much sense for the bottom line.

I received the same promo just now. So BSL-BRN won't work this time. I probably won't go for the full 50k, but a handful of flights can make sense if they fit in with other travel.

Just in case anyone wants to do a mileage run for this: the cheapest international Swiss Business fare is available on the route FDH-BSL-FDH: 263 return. Unfortunately only one flight in each direction per day.

I guess something like FDH-BSL-STU and back might be a better option, as one round trip would count for 4 flights ..
Anyway, does not smell like a good milage run chance (like the 240kmiles earlier this year).

I suppose you mean STR = Stuttgart.

Try to get FDH-BSL-STR rt ticketed, or even just a price quoted! Not a very practical proposal, I'm affraid.

No it is a targeted promotion.
To be part of it you have received an email or a letter like the one I posted above.

There is currently a special C-class offer ex-Rome to Zurich for EUR295 return. Look at swiss.com under Special Offers - Italy.

Good news but for people living in Switzerland they have to fly to Rome... So this is more complicated..
