I think I may have found an error in the calculations.

I calculated LHR-MAD in Disc Y with my silver status. It returns 1744 points. It also returns this amount when I calculate it in J. The distance from LHR-MAD is 773mi and when you take into account the new 50% bonus for silver it should earn 1159 in disc Y and that's not taking into account the 0.50 points per mile in discount Y on BA (as I assume the app doesn't do that yet)

Perhaps I'm just silly and don't properly understand how it's calculating?

No... You picked up a bug with the Earning tables. Where BA disc flights where being given a 100% bonus (wouldnt that be nice!) I have fixed that now - BA flights in disc y are calc at 50% of standard miles (down to the 125 min)

The new 50% bonus is only applied to direct QF flights, otherwise BA flights are calculated with 25% bonus for QF silver .

Thanks for picking it up!

... BA flights in disc y are calc at 50% of standard miles (down to the 125 min) ...

Note that discount WHY with BA flight numbers on The "Kangaroo Route" earn at 100%:

British Airways (BA):


GKLMNOQSV (selected routes only)^

...
^ Travel in Discount Economy in the Eligible Booking Classes between these city pairs will earn a Base Rate of 1:
- Adelaide, Brisbane, Darwin, Melbourne, Perth or Sydney and London or Frankfurt via Bangkok or Singapore,
- Adelaide, Brisbane, Darwin, Melbourne, Perth or Sydney and Bangkok or Singapore, and
- London or Frankfurt and Bangkok or Singapore.

I have set it as any flights ex-uk / via sin/bkk/hgk to Aus get 100% of points.

Cool ... don't forget the other way

One day I'll get an Android device and check it out.

Looks great but what about some love for us BlackBerry users? I have a Torch 9800 so the screen size is approx the same as a Droid or iPhone with plenty of memory and CPU speed. I'll even pay for the First Class version and Beta test it. I have a IT background (both hardware and software design) in one of my previous lives/careers.

Haha... The other way is automatic.
I'm deciding if I just put a drop-down box to say what airline your going to travel on.

Hmmm... If I had more time I would love to do a BB version. Maybe in a couple of months. In the meantime I am doing a 'web-mobile' version of the free version on my site- same basic functions. I expect that will be ready in about 3 weeks.

Hi, I bought your App and love it.... But are the status credits for Mel - Cns correct? When I put these in these city pairs it comes back with 10 sc for Y and 40 for J...

I'm having trouble with SYD - CNS. The app seems to think it is the same as SYD - CBR.
