comparing to aa exec plat which earns 245% on most partners. anyone planning to switch?

100% base
125% MVP75k
200% COS
200% new additional bonus

= 625%.

A earns 450% without status, D earns 350% without status

the 140 is assumed for elites who needed to fly 32k on ba d fare to get 90k status miles on as to qualified for additional 50k bonus miles . ba d fare has 2.5 weighting. (base plus cos)
