I was wondering the same thing.

This isn't super clear from the website. On the first link, it states: "When you earn 10 or more A+ credits flying AirTran Airways within any 90-day period..."

To me, I would think the 1.5 credits are earned flying AirTran and thus would count towards the count.

Too bad if this isn't the case...
