Pro:
1. OWE earned
2. Avois system and I can freely move to BA and IB to book award tickets from TYO to US operated by JAL on 360 days out. 75000 avois + 250 fee.

Con:
Useless milestone (Lounge access and free upgrade if operated by Finnair)

Any thought and advice?
I know nothing about their program, but did you verify that's how it will credit on the Finnair site? Sometimes wheretocredit is wrong. I also don't know if they require any AY segments or not.

One additional small perk, they are part of the group that gets free MCE seating on AA, plus you'd get domestic lounges which is nice in airports with the AA FL and very nice in JFK if you fly in and out of there often.
