12/16/2012 ALASKA AIRLINES SEA OGG 845 2,640 2,640 5,280

It looks like they only credited me 2640 miles, which I'm guessing is the distance of a direct flight fro Seattle to OGG. However I didn't take a direct flight, I had a stop-over in Sacremento (though the flight number was the same).

I presume this is an error by Alaska and something they should fix? This is particularly concerning for me, as without these miles I'll be 55 miles short of MVPG!
I almost fell prey to the same screw over. But I know I went to MSP before via SEA with same flight numbers and got the actual miles flown. Maybe since AS didnt have nonstop to MSP? or maybe the screwed up?
