mgm - you get the prize. Its not 265000 pts on AA or 112000 on QF or 108000 on CX but all three ie 485000 pts and executive platinum qualification on AA. How did you know that Krug was my favourite champagne - another good reason to swap over to Oneworld as QANTAS serves Krug whereas United serves Dom.

As for the SCL-EZE-SCL-EZE the Oneworld Explorer rules only limit you to 3 free stopovers in each continent. As long as you don't need extra segments and have no more than your 3 over 24 hour stops you could have all 3 stops in the one city. The ticket has already been issued and BA didn't object to the routing.

Thanks for the advice about LHR-SCL being ineligible for AAdvantage point accumulation - I'll have to follow that up. I'd always assumed it was just trans North Atlantic that the restriction applied to.
