Am I interpreting the rules correctly that I can bounce around with a TC region, e.g., between Tahiti and Asia? So, for example, I could fly LAX-NRT-PPT-HKG-JNB?
I know that I'll earn full AA miles and EQP/EQM for any AA codeshare, but what about an Air Tahiti Nui or Air Pacific flight coded as someone else such as QF? Will I earn AA EQP?
It's very hard to figure out a routing that works that lets me go to either NAN or PPT, especially if I want to stop in Los Angeles, and I'd prefer to fly AA over the water, and also prefer CX over QF for the start or end.
I'm not sure what you mean about bouncing around a TC region. If you go to the SWP one of your entries into asia must be a transit without stopover between the SWP and EUR(the same rule applies with a donex):
F. Only one intercontinental departure and one intercontinental arrival permitted in each continent except as follows:
1. Two permitted in North America when one is a transfer without stopover.
2. Two permitted in Asia when one is a transfer without stopover or on direct single plane service between the Southwest Pacific and Europe.
3. For travel to/from or via Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya and Uganda two permitted in Europe when one is a transfer without stopover between Ghana/Nigeria/Kenya/Uganda and another continent.
