Indeed, an obvious glitch for QR on HNL-LAX. The numbers make no sense given the short distance.
Even the Qpoints on an AA flight seems too much.

I wonder what is happening on the QRcalculator for AA. For example JFK-LHR one way earns 50 (C,D,J) or 40 (I,R) and that is extremely generous for a rather short flight. The same flight on BA gives 30 (C,D, I, J, R) which seems consistent with usual QR pricing. The same flight using Qatar one-way gives outrageous numbers like 128 for C,J.
I did not realize that there were so many errors for QR codeshare on segments that they do not fly their own metal. Probably some errors for AA too.

The 30 QPoints for HNL-LAX are consistent with standard QR pricing.
