AA records differently than US.

The credit line shows the actual mileage in the first column and the combined bonus' in the second column (500 mile minimum differential + elite status bonus). So there is not an EQM column per se as we were accustomed to seeing in DM mileage history.

You must manually extract and calculate each EQM event. Then check the account summary for EQM before and after the flight to confirm if the correct EQM was credited.

The full 500 mile EQM should be added to your summary but the only way to see it is to know your balance before and after each flight.

Yes, next year's EXP renewal gift is an abacus.
