Is there a limit?

If I were to fly 6 qantas segments, does that equal 6,000 bonus miles?

Does a domestic Australian flight count as it is non-USA flight?

From the fine print:

"... receive 1,000 bonus miles for each unique qualifying Mileage Plan partner airline flown from June 1, 2016, through September 15, 2016, to an international destination."

Seems like it's 1000 miles per airline you fly with internationally, not per flight.

So do you get double miles AND 1000 bonus miles on BA?

And AM, the partner with whom we haven't been able to redeem for what, the better part of a year, does earn the bonus.

Damn, I have a BA flight two days before the promo starts. But at least my FI reservation is within the window.

Despite no awards on AM, I do still enjoy earning miles. It's hard to complain about 34in. legroom and 9 across in the 772

I was just thinking about AM, and how this may be a good excuse to try the CBX in San Deigo. What AM flight did you take? I see the 777 take off from TIJ to PVG all the time and think "Should I try that?"

I've flown AM on the 772 and the 788 to MEX and EZE. Their 772 is better in Y, but has a bad J product (2-3-2 angled). The 788 has lie-flats in a 2-2-2, but has 9 across in Y.

Thanks for posting or I would have missed it. What a coincidence, the main photo on the page was of Beijing. Exactly where I'm going on my AA trip in the promo period. Too bad it doesn't count on award flights as I have CX and QF in a few weeks. Well technically my CX is in May so wouldn't have counted anyways

So the answer is that you'd receive 1000 bonus miles for your first QF flight but not an additional 1000 bonus miles for each subsequent QF flight.

Does a domestic Australian flight count as it is non-USA flight?
Based on this, I would assume so:

"International destinations include any flights with at least one non-US based destination"

Before anyone asks, this is for redeemable miles only and not for elite qualifying miles.

That'll be a nice bonus the next time I fly AA ORD-YYZ, then.
