LH Mileage Bonuses

I just want to confirm:

If in D or Z, etc. There will be a 150% mileage accrual bonus AND it is also 150% elite preferred as well? US website is a little ambiguous compared to UA or CO.

Much more generous than UA/CO. This would give my partner Silver preferred, but we just want to make sure its really 150%, otherwise we need to credit to CO as there are already some elite miles in there from travel this year.

Thanks!

If flying on LH the following fare classes get 150% mileage accrual, A, F, C, D, J, Z.

Based on your post it sounds like your partner is not already a preferred member which means they would not get a preferred mileage bonus. The preferred mileage bonus does not count as EQM towards preferred status.

A, F, C, D, J & Z are still listed as 150% earning. That's preferred qualifying.

The preferred bonus of 25, 50, 75 or 100 percent preferred bonus (depending on Dividend Miles status) when flying US/USX/UA/CO/LH is not preferred qualifying.

Expand the "Bonus Miles" section for details: http://www.usairways.com/en-US/divid...chairmans.html

Yes, thanks! He is not preferred now, and that makes sense that the extra 25,50, etc. percentage wouldn't count. Just wanted to make sure its 150% earn/eqm in business class. We'd prefer to have status on US than CO. More likely to be upgraded, and more miles (100% versus 150%) to accrue and use. Hopefully some upgrades to san juan and cancun will be in our future.
