I just did the JFK-BCN trip over New Year’s (big snafu coming back that had me ranting all over the AA board btw lol) but didn’t credit either leg anywhere yet. So actually I think I would be at 3,200. I didn’t even bother to look because I’m already OW Sapphire through end of the year with Cathay. I had no idea about the differentiation on AA like that. That’s so random, no?
