But let's say you credited Brazil-Miami to Executive Club and Miami-London to AAdvantage. (Assume that those programs will offer the bonus under the same set of rules.) Even though the stopover was less than 24 hours, am I correct in my assumption that you would still receive credit for North America and Europe, respectively, in those programs?

Second question: According to the current rules, if you did a same-day MIA-CCS return trip, it seems that you would only receive credit for North America (because the stop in CCS would be less than 24 hours). It seems silly, but isn't that what the current rules indicate?
