"****EQDs are calculated based on what you pay for your ticket (base fare plus carrier-imposed fees, excluding any government-imposed taxes and fees)."
The agent claim the table should have % of fare instead of mile flown based on the **** note.I was curious if anyone have heard of this explanation?
The AAdvantage Customer Service desk IME is not helpful when it comes to EQDs and special fares. I usually use AAdvantage Vacations as in intermediary with the customer service desk, YMMV
