How many AS miles would this earn?
I checked the IAP and got the same $1900, but it books into JAL I fares so it would only earn 70% of the distance flown when credited to AS and Amex didnt allow for creative routing to maximize miles. So IAP would only credit 13,452 EQM.
This flight is also over the Max Permitted Miles, which is why its $2800 instead of the $2400. But for 2 extra transcon segments, and an extra 34,358 EQM it would be worth it for many.

My calculations were the same for EQM. Added bonus for the new 100k's on AS is that it would earn 91,839 RDM
