I've been reading this thread with some interest, mainly to get a sense of the value of my miles.

It may be in the T&C's but only Miles & More seem to insist on it. Asiana has specifically not credit my flight to my new Asiana account and I am about to send the BP somewhere else! Thai will match you based on a flight in the future, as long as the e-ticket is for a flight prior to 15/12. Not sure about the rest.
