I'm trying to find out if I have done the calculations correctly for redeemable miles (RDM) and MVP qualifying miles. Would appreciate if anyone could verify that I have done the calculations right. I came up with 91659 RDM and 40,367 miles towards the 90,000 needed for MVP Gold 75. If I have done the math correctly I can easily maintain AA Executive Platinum and MVP Gold 75 so I will have more choices for award redemption.

My head is spinning trying to figure it out, so i gave up. BA operated will accrue based on BA chart. AA operated will earn based on the AA chart and not the BA chart. It appears your chart is using BA calculations for the AA operated flights so the numbers would be off
