I just want to make sure that I get the actual credit for the flight and the fare code is correct. Do I need to select another flight then to get premier on both routes or is this common?
You are fine. You earn miles on the fare purchased. The segment MEX-CUN is often flown in an all-coach cabin with the middle seats in the first few rows blocked.
AM calls this "premier light". You still earn the same as regular premier as on the TIJ-MEX segment.
