If you buy your ticket directly from an airline (airline website, or, in the case of a RTW, from the
airline's RTW desk), you'll get the 5× MR points on the ticket(s). If you buy from a travel agent, you will probably, but not definitely, not. I have no idea how to tell in advance whether or not that agency's tickets attract the 5× bonus. To be certain. buy directly from the airlines. For an RTW, try the AA RTW desk, +1-800-247-3247.
