exOTP Advanced Purchase Fare AA ILW8C8S6 to PHX
Some information below on this advanced purchase OTP fare. I think this may cover multiple US destinations, but this is highlighted for PHX which is particularly cheap.
Bear in mind LHR-OTP is a short haul + route so earns 80 TPs one way in J, so a simple OTP-LHR- JFK-LAX-PHX-LAX-JFK- LHR-OTP would earn 80+140+140+40+40+140+140+80=800 TP.
