AA FF looking to maintain EXP

I am looking to book a MR. I have 88K EQP, 66K EQM and 43 segments(I got to go to Asia twice this year in First Class). Since the double EQM promotions aren't of any use to me, I need to find 12K EQP to requalify. I am based out of ORD.

My thoughts are to simply cross the country as much as needed or maybe go to LHR. I'll be booking in Economy - are there fares I need to avoid so that I get 1:1 EQP? Any thoughts/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I just looked at a MR between ORD and NRT in Economy for $2,600. This would get me exactly the 12K EQP I need unless there is not a 1:1 EQP rate for the fares I plan to purchase which are K and H. Does this make sense?
