You can see that AF and KLM are listed in the Annual Qualification section but not in the Mileage Accrual box.

I'm glad that OMAguy got the bonuses. I wish that AS would fix the inconsistencies on the website about this.

The Program Guidelines pdf was last updated in April 2004 and doesn't list AF as a partner.
An AF trip I took in late April was included in my qualifying status AND I received the 100% bonus for MVPG. Also, I received a 100% bonus on the outbound (a special promotion for the new partnership) & 25% additional bonus for flying in BIZ class. The return did not get the 100% "New Partnership" bonus as it was 1 day after the special ended. All told, 45K miles. (Could have been 50K. Oh, well)
