Not quite correct
The earning for flying in J is:
if no status then 1.25 RDM per flown mile (25% class of service bonus)
if gold status then a 25% status bonus on that
if PLT or EXP then 100% status bonus
Points however are 1.5 points per mile in J, no matter the status
amaroo your SYD-LAX flight in J is sufficient on its own for you to earn more than 10K points and thus complete the challenge (flown miles = 7488; points earned = 1.5x7488 = 11,232; AND you will get the 100% RDM for that flight, so 2.25x7488 RDM earned = 16,848)
