Discount Economy Class N, G, S
50% Base Miles (elite status qualifying) Class of Service
0.50 Elite Qualifying Points per Mile Earned

N class on QF does earn AA miles. On this basis I now consider AA ffp is the way to go
And AA challenge worth considering. Have not calculated if worth it. Depends on how many AA or OW flights after this adventure.
Great circle distance 20219 miles x 0.5 = 10102 EQP. Need to check more, but this may get AA status as below. http://www.oneworld.com/ffp/my-onewo...-platinum#tier

Wiki AA Challenge: -"An AA Challenge is based on flying sufficiently to earn 5,000 (AAdvantage Gold) or 10,000 (AAdvantage Platinum) Elite Qualifying Points (EQP) in a three month period". Note this is not an AA site
