The Miles & More Calculator estimates award miles earned in Lufthansa's frequent flyer program based on flight distance and fare class multiplier. It helps passengers calculate their loyalty program earnings accurately.
The calculator uses the Miles Earned formula:
Where:
Explanation: The calculation multiplies the actual flight distance by a fare class multiplier that reflects the ticket price category, with higher fare classes earning more miles.
Details: Accurate miles calculation is essential for tracking loyalty program progress, planning award redemptions, and maximizing the value of frequent flyer benefits.
