There's no further explanation as to the difference between the V that accrues 70% and the 50% V. Is this a mistake? Which mileage accrual percentage does V fare earn on AAdvantage?

Interesting. 'W' and 'E' are listed twice as well, under different categories, but the earnings are the same in both cases so the point is moot. Definitely worth a call, and I'd try more than once to see if you get consistent answers.This is arcane enough that it might be hard to find someone who really knows.

Cheers.
