just a quick update...while the outbound MCO->LAX->PEK counted as special fare, for the second time that I upgraded a special fare (last one was AAV with a *), the return counted as fare-based. I've written AAdvantage CS 7 days ago about it and no reply as of yet. I'm confident that it likely won't change.
While I have zero issues that I'll reach EP this year, I would have enjoyed the additional EQMs towards my 150k for 2 more SWUs!
