sorry haven’t redeemed AA points in a while and wanted to make sure this is a good deal.
Redemptions involving most partner carriers (including QR) are fixed price, and AA does not collect carrier surcharges for redemptions on QR; so that's as good as it's going to get for that itinerary. Whether it's a "good deal" depends on whether you can get BOM-XXX-LAX for less through a different FFP, and what a cash ticket would cost.
