Thank you all for your responses. However no-one has answered the basic question, what is the difference between M & L class for mileage accrual on BA and AA. Is there any?</font>
For BA, no difference, it will still earn 25% miles and zero status credits
For credit to AA, the info is all available on the AA site. In the AAdvantage section, it lists all the fare earning classes for all partner carriers , so you could have had a look there
AA Flight - L 100% , M 100%
CX flights - L 0% , M 0%
EI flights - L 0% , M 0%
QF flights -
Until 31/12/03 - L 70% , M 70%
From 01/01/04 - L 0% , M 50%
BA flights - L 25% , M 25%
IB flights - L 30% , M 30%
AY flights - L 100% , M 100%
LA flights - L 100% , M 100%
The only real difference is that L earns 0% on QF from 1st January next year whilst M earns 50%
