does the cap 75000 rdm per ticket applies?
with class of service and elite bonus.
the partner portion is supposed to earn almost 135000 miles under old scheme.
While nobody knows about this, an educated guess for this could be referenced to the "special fares" criteria. It just lists examples, but I presume xONEx fares may be part of this as well since ticket stock can change one airline to another after each validation/reissue (depending on the airline dealt with).

So, I am thinking that we'd still be earning based on flown miles on xONEx tickets and that EQDs will be calculated based on % mileage flown. I really am hoping this would be the case since I hold partly flown DONE4 ex-JNB and keeping ~30K EQM for next year. Time will tell, but I think we have some good examples to keep us a bit positive about this! If this is the case, then the value of DONEx tickets ex-SA or elsewhere would increase when crediting to AA, wouldn't it?
