Mileage plus flying on Lufthansa Premium Economy Class
I am wondering how much credit I can get when flying on Lufthansa Premium Economy Class.
According the following link;
http://www.miles-and-more.com/online...en&cid=1000276
Premium Economy booking class and mile credit to Miles and more is followings.
E, G: 1.5 x distance, at least 750 miles
N: 1.0 x distance, at least 500 miles
So, E and G are more expensive than N. OK~
Then, I looked the UA web,
http://www.united.com/CMS/en-US/Mark...spx?ItemId=298
G=100%, E and N=0%
This is VERY strange.
Then I sent e-mail and called to United.
Both said the web was correct!!!
Even "Discount Economy", T and L is 100%. Why PE 0%?
Why E = 0% and G = 100%???? (assume E is more expensive than G)
I am checking this before I booked the PE ticket.
Anybody who actually flew on PE with LH? How much did you earn?
Thanks for your help!

Yeah, there's also a hole like this in the award chart for TAP; there is an intermediate fare class which costs more than all the 50% earning fares, costs more than most of the 100% earning fares, and somehow earns 0%. United says: "Too bad".

Hopefully these inconsistencies will be fixed...maybe if UA gets a bunch of emails asking about it someone will finally elevated it higher up the ladder for review?
I'm pretty much good for 2015 PQD so I am looking at booking some stuff away from UA and I wanted to try LH PE but I won't if it is chasing/0 mile shenanigans.
