CAN ANYONE CONFIRM THEY HAVE RECEIVED150% EQM's for the B booking on a StarRTW fare.
 
UA flights booked in B class are eligible to earn 50% Bonus EQM.

Can anyone confirm receiving 150% EQM on RTW B-Class Booking on UA.

Yes - FRA-SFO on a *RTW1

Well I flew a YRWSTAR1 in September with about 18k-20k of UA flights booked in B, and only got 100% EQM, so my experience, unfortunately, differs :(

Interestingly enough, I'm showing the same 100% EQM status on my mileage summary, and I'm still traveling. Possibly a retroactive crediting situation -- either way give UA MP a call, and confirm with them that the RTW tix are booked in D-fare seats... ...thus it's implied you will still get the 150% EQM.

I'll let you know if I see any changes on my end. You can bet I'll be pursuing this one as well.

I had a United Express flight IAD-PHL booked in B (part of my CRTW). The actual miles showed in my MP is 500. But my EQM was 750.
Same thing for my regular B-fares SFO-YVR, actual miles showed only 800, but my EQM was 1200.

I've been dudded about 10k EQM then! :(

oh well it wouldn't have mattered much since I was nowhere near to making 1K anyway.

RichardMel - you are not alone. I believe I asked this question about the B class and RTW tickets last year when the promo was released. The discussion was RTW's were not valid, so I accepted the normal mileage credit.

I missed the discussion. If you kindly post the link please.
In my case, could it be possible that I received my B 150% EQM because I had CRTW, which should be booked in D (150% EQM) but for UAX IAD-PHL, it was only in B?
