Did you put your AA# on the res once it got re-routed over to AA, and thus earn AA miles?

Right, because nobody could simply white out their OAL FF# on the boarding pass before scanning or faxing it?

I didn't even keep the boarding pass because I've done ORC credit many times over the past few years and never gotten asked for it.
