Yes, but the OP obviously knows the AA-specific rules for such an award, and is not asking about them. What he is asking about is (or seems to be) destinations and non-AA flights to get to those destinations. These questions are not AA-specific (in fact, don't seem to involve AA at all). Therefore, this is the wrong forum.

Of course, there is a school of thought here on FT that if one flies one's normal flights primarily on AA, then all one's questions belong on the AA forum, no matter the topic. In other words, that FT should be organized around the poster, rather than the topic. That seems to be in play here.
