Earn and redeem AAdvantageŽ miles for travel on Qatar within the Middle East and between the Middle East and:
  • Africa
  • Asia
  • Canada
  • Europe
  • South America
  • South Pacific
  • U.S.
That section at aa.com is only meant as a rough guide of where each carrier flies their own metal, not a hard and fast list of what flights are or are not eligible for mileage credit.

Assuming you book eligible fare codes then you'll earn miles/EQD/etc. flying QR from the US-DOH-Africa and back.
