My limited understanding is AA do not match to EK.
Details of the AA Plat challenge here:-

But MH & CX are not listed as airlines that can be used for the challenge.
A risk with AA is that changes due to the USAirways/AA merger(takeover) are possible. Some other USA FFP's are moving to a revenue based system.
