First off, I want to thank everyone. I've only been reading this website for a week and I've learned alot thus far. I'm based out of Chicago and am currently platinum with AA. By year end, I'll need about 20K more to acheive executive platinum this year and am looking at the following trip:

ORD>LAX>NRT>SIN - roundtrip 21,000 miles, price ~$900

The flight from NRT to SIN is on Japan airlines. Will I receive the miles from NRT to SIN and back although its not on AA metal?

Thanks,

Dave
