Not even remotely :) Very welcome and enjoy! That would be amazing, but I'd think, somewhat unlikely. Thus far it's QR and QF that have airline-specific exceptions-- both OneWorld members. That said, there are faint rumors of a loosening of some of the myriad routing/zone restrictions...

Yep, cant say I know when it was added (less than 3 month, I'd say) but there's a new column, with, thus far, only this sole entry :) Unlike the QR column which has 7.

Before had to be single fight number, IIRC. https://twitter.com/xJonNYC/status/674317081945468928

oops! "AAdv" (AAdvantage)

My confirmation is most definitely not from AA officially, but, is from an AA person who confirmed it's now allowed.

My sincere apology if this has been mentioned here previously. I have a complete list of "using QR via DOH" 3rd zone exceptions that I've shared in various places: https://www.flickr.com/photos/54131097@N07/14363216185/in/dateposted-public/ However, it just came to my attention today from this...

Yeah-- it's gonna be a while.

Re: Major new AA route to be announced June 9th. I've now been told to expect them to announce an additional QF metal route as well as part of this.

Re: Major new AA route to be announced June 9th. AA metal to SYD! Traveling Better Forums - View Single Post - "Very significant" new AA route to be announced (The fact that I posted it here was the hint :) )

Supposed to be announced at 2pm from Miami-- not an ex-Miami route though.

Exactly the kind of ticket I'm seeing in my searching. And that's exactly the point, the "normal" amount of miles up until this change would be 100K for 2 awards-- Europe-> DXB and DXB-> MEL-- since the rule is/was: (add PVG to that list) So, there has either been a complete, partial or...

OK, OK, when a big "do a search" results or "we've known of this for months now--here's the link!" I promise I'll take it in the right spirit. :) But on the off, off, off chance the info didn't originalte from this very forum to begin with, take a look at this TB thread and tell me whatcha...

Correct answer here: Traveling Better Forums - View Single Post - Use of Australia <-> New Zealand "within one Country" AAward, QF only?

My understanding is yes. And an over-all "most direct routing" logic applies as well. But I haven't seen enough examples to know what kind of awards that were allowable under the old rules are not allowed under the new rules-- aside from ones that greatly exceed the MPM (on MPM routes.) But...

I know that 2 weeks ago LAX-AKL was among the awards (and there are many) that were reported as "not pricing" and had to be overridden to create the award. Don't know if they solved that yet, but if -that's- the problem, you need to find someone who knows how to override. Not sure what effect...

Expertflyer will show MPM on MPM fares. Other sources as well , I'm sure. The allowable MPM on a given award will be a higher number than the MPM on the published fare.

Two things; Many, many awards are mispricing right now-- in the way you describe. HOWEVER, MPM and other revenue-fare rules -will- be applied to these awards. For more info, see here: Traveling Better Forums - View Single Post - Stuff in May Traveling Better Forums - View Single Post -...

Thanks! (and I edited my now-slightly-paranoid sounding post!) :oops:

I had posted a thread here about the AAward hold 8May and subtly pointing to the fact that there would be AAdvantage awards changes loaded this weekend. Was that thread zapped for some reason? Or technical glitch?
