AA PE earns 100% of miles flown in Mileage Plan. I also flew YVR-LAX full Y and LAX-HKG IN PE in January too. Both segments credited 100% to Mileage Plan. You can choose MCE seats for no additional fee on the Y segments.
I have been seeing some excellent fares on AA exYVR. I am also seeing AA PE YVR-PHX-MIA-GIG return for $660 for select dates in November & December. If we discard the domestic PHX-MIA (in case my posting was a one-off) it would still accrue 11,834 EQM/RDM + any Elite Bonus. At EQM 5.7 cpm, that is a good MR. Total RDM for MVP 17,751 (3.78 cpm), MVPG 23,668 (2.79 cpm) & MVPG75K 26,627 (2.48 cpm)
