Would need to check if there is a difference in the miles earned bonus for JGC between AA and JL to say if that is correct.

Thanks for helping to check! It was showing up as JL5 on GF so wasn't really sure about the extra 400FOP, but guess it makes sense they wouldn't give it. For AA it also seems they would give the same 105% bonus miles (mile-up bonus) for JGC sapphire holders?

I think it costed around USD1,300 more to book this on JL instead of AA, so wanted to see if I'd be missing out on loads of miles/FOPs.

Thanks again! ☺
