Help with points calc
Is someone able to help me calculate the miles/EQMs I will earn as a UA Premier member for the following itinerary?
SYD/SFO - UA business
SFO/FRA - LH business
FRA/BKK - LH business
BKK/SYD - TG business
I'm not sure what I get in the way of miles and EQMs, and which flights qualify. I've done heaps of reading on the UA site and also here but can't figure it out for sure. Thanks in advance.

From my own statements (with 1K having 100% bonus and 2P 25%),
I can confirm and derive for you:
The latter two I derive from my LH statements and the MP rules.
They should still be valid.
I can confirm and derive for you:
Code:
SYD/SFO - UA business 7417 flight miles 11125 EQM (+50%) 9271 RDM + 3708 2P bonus SFO/FRA - LH business 5699 flight miles 5699 EQM 7124 RDM + 1425 2P bonus FRA/BKK - LH business 5575 flight miles 5575 EQM 6969 RDM (no 2P bonus as no Atlantic route) BKK/SYD - TG business 4676 flight miles 4676 EQM 5845 RDM
They should still be valid.

A small extra query
How come I don't get any bonus on the FRA/BKK and BKK/SYD legs? I know I don't get the UA 25% bonus, but surely I get a 25% cabin bonus for flying business?
Thanks
Thanks

this? It definitely applies to RDM (as I have that on the statement) but I thought
it did not hold for EQM.
