Will tryout the JGC program for next year's flights.
This is part of the reason some people are crediting their AA flights to JL now I'm guessing (that and OW has some really lackluster partner programs for crediting your AA balance...). I'm still debating whether I want to go this route or switch my OW loyalty to CX.
Edit: It looks like half of your qualifying points need to be flown on JAL itself, not partners? Could be a limiting factor depending on who you fly.
"Must have accrued at least 50,000 FLY ON Points (including 25,000 FLY ON Points for JAL Group flights) or have attained at least 50 flights (including 25 JAL Group flights) and 15,000 FLY ON Points during the preceding calendar year from January to December."
