miler,
Thanks for posting your e-mail. The very interesting thing I find about this relpy is that Anne of WebFlyer has already confirmed with AA that intracontinental flights do count for the bonus so this is a major contradiction.
I did e-mail AAdvantage with this intracontinental question, however i provided an example and asked if a flight from EZE to SCL would count as South America. The "answer" was "yes, Santiago is in South America". Not really an answer to my question about intra-continental flights.
A new wrinkle into the mix provided by this e-mail is that subsidiary carriers do NOT count to the bonus. IF that is true then the flight from LGW - CAS would not count as it is operated by subsidiary GB Air. This rule is ridiculous. It would be the same as saying AA Eagle flights do not count.
Anyway i will fire off another e-mail to AAdvantage to enquire as to the rules.

MARKIE: could you post a copy of your e-mail from AA indicating intra-continental flights do apply?
