andrzej, this is kind of squirmy for this topic, but if I try a search with YUP (three letters), I will get search-dumped still, right? But you know this stuff up one side and down the other, so...

How are YUP fares figured for EQMs and EQPs? I have some assumptions, but you know how those work out...

You get 0.5 points for every mile flown in discount economy
1.0 points for the regular economy
and 1.5 points for full fare, business and first.

so, if you are flying on the cheapest fares you would need 20,000 miles in a 3 month period. If it's the higher economy or front of the plane, obviously you won't need as many miles.

Check www.aa.com for the applicable fare codes.
