To: SEA/PDX/SLC/LAX/ATL/EWR/JFK/SJU (probably others)
Routing: AUH between Europe and Asia. NRT (and optionally HNL) between Asia and North America.
Interesting options: Some city combinations will book into T fares on AZ for a few dollars more, which will earn 100% on Flying Blue.

I wish I knew what the RDM situation would be for 2015 on partner flights. This is a great deal as for as CPM for MQM but it would be an amazing deal if there was somehow a loophole on the mileage versus the $ spent on the Alitalia portion.

Correct. This entire itin. would be tough to credit to just one ff program. As stated, no DL since it is Etihad operating, AZ O class gives a small percentage in MilleMiglia, while AS will only be good for Sin-USA portion.

Flight is pending government approval.
What Italy-Abu Dhabi routes are currently being sold but not yet finalized?
EDIT: It looks like a stopover in Abu Dhabi is also permitted. Has anyone been able to price this through?

Just can't pull trigger, that Etihad 6k-7k miles minimum is no good for me plus the cost of a positioning flight from USA and return flight to hometown.
A couple of way to maximize points
1) 2k or 5k MilleMiglia https://mm.alitalia.com/EN_EN/mm/reg...ew.aspx?cod=20
2) Air France Promo for 50% off so 12,500 one way for positioning flight
3) Pray AS earning isn't changed on Delta, if taking flights next year
