Flights after 1/1/18 R on AA coded ticket earn 150% for international

If I call and talk with an agent do you think they will move him? If not, no big deal, sigh, I will take one for the team and give my seat to him. Lol, he can drink, I cannot.
You can ask nicely but officially it only applies if you are on the same reservation.
