Too bad 016 tix earnings aren't based on fare class anymore!

well, they aren't paying for it with the JV they have

A and F earn the same amount of miles (D, C, J, A, F for that matter)

so no help here either way

In any event, the per $ earning on the 016 ticket will be much better anyway, unless you found a hell of an A-fare deal
