Can you clarify where it says you can earn miles on an award ticket?

Seems to me there might be a lot of changes coming as part of *A integration. I'm not convinced for a start that Gold will map to *A Gold.

Can only see the upgrade rates without registering but the redemption rates based on upgrade rewards look to be horrific. The cost of a two way redemption upgrade from economy to business from the Americas to Europe is 50% more than the cost of an entire ticket from scratch on bmi. Even if these rewards turn out to be available on *A, they won't be great value.
