I am disappointed and puzzled by the negativity. I meant to start a discussion (maybe not in this sticky??) about maximizing points and miles. I don't want anyone to do specific work for me,;hell, Rocket Money would crash if they saw my subscription list: EF, flightconnections, pointsyeah, etc etc. And I am planning on using a TA just to avoid flying AA number (although I don't mind their planes at all). Here's an example of what I had in mind:
OK, here's a DONE4:
NRT-JFK 6773 base 18288 bonus 25061 total
JFK-DFW
DFW-ICT 2275 2730 5005 includes JFK-DFW on AA also
ICT-DCA
DCA-ICT miles missing for these two segments
ICT-DFW
DFW-DUB 2665 3198 5863 on AA and includes ICT-DFW-DUB
DUB-DOH 3526 9521 13047
DOH-AGP 3372 9105 12477
AGP-MAD (surface)
MAD-DOH 3316 8954 12270
DOH-AKL 9012 24323 33345
AKL-MEL 1643 2383 4026
MEL-CNS 1422 2068 3485
CNS-SYD 1210 1755 2965
SYD-HND 4836 13058 17894

Total LPs 135438
This was my last oneworld fare spanning two qualifying years. March 10 2024-March 10, 2025.
