I thought I could book under current rules and then I'd have 4 to 6 weeks to actually pay for the ticket.....So I really have to have my ticket all paid up before 1st of June?

Thanks for the info on San Diego by rail. I will strongly consider it. However I don't understand why SEA-SAN is not a oneworld flight when it's an established AA route and part of the oneworld "where we fly" interactive network map.

I guess I might go to SJU in between JFK and DFW instead, I can't really think of anywhere else I can go in North America that's interesting but if you have any ideas for me I'd appreciate that. I will be using NY as a base for Boston, Washington, Montreal and Toronto and Seattle as a base for Vancouver and Portland, Miami for Orlando and San Francisco for Vegas and the Grand Canyon.

My inital legs still count towards meeting the challenge though? JNB-HKG-DEL will get me 10,000 Q-Points flying D on CX?
