I'm looking to try LAN from MIA/LIM. AA's site says:

I know I would earn 50% or 100% EQP based on fare code. But as far as EQM, am I in the clear to earn 100%? Another example, IB discount economy earns 30%. In other words are the amount of miles accrued EQM? Thanks!
The 100% in the "mileage accrual percentage" column on that page, along with the statement in the first paragraph that says the mileage is elite-qualifying, would probably indicate that the fares do, indeed, earn 100 percent Q-miles.

Q-miles and Q-points are earned on all oneworld fares that would ordinarily earn miles, as well as eligible flights on Alaska Airlines.
