Can anyone confirm AQM for the (soon-to-be-removed) direct YYZ-EZE flight.
The Google Sheets calculator gives a Haversine distance of 5584. The mileage table *queried* by the calculator gives 5573, but for some reason this doesn't pop up on the calculator tab. gcmap.com gives 5563, which is weird since usually AC cheats on the mileage versus gcmap. Anyone know from personal experience what gets credited?
(Trying to plan whether my wife needs to do some creative routings to get over 100K for the first time - having been my 50K nominee for about 5 years now. Of course, will build in a bit of leeway but would prefer to use as accurate info as possible and she has YYZ-EZE-YYZ upcoming already booked.)
Thanks!

For flights where the data table has been populated, the data has almost always been accurate right to the mile (once I cleaned out a bunch of mistakes where people had put things in the wrong cell). I'm a bit surprised it was off by 1 in this case, but perhaps AC has changed it.
As for why EZE was in the data table but not pulled by the calculator, it turns out that there was a rogue space in the EZE header cell, which meant that typing "EZE" in the calculator tab didn't find any results since it was in the data table as " EZE" (or "EZE ", I forget which).
I've fixed that and will upload a new version in the next few days.
Also, people, if you're going to contribute to the data tab, great, but please be careful. For example, someone has added YYR to SFO mileage as 800. I'm sure this well-meaning person wanted to add the YVR to SFO mileage, but it's sloppiness like that that can muck the whole thing up. So feel free to just post in this thread and I'll update the sheet.

I'd argue that if you think a COMMON route has missing data (i.e. YVR-SFO), then you're probably doing something wrong.
YYR-YQX, maybe. BOM-GOI, sure.
But YVR-SFO? You've entered a city wrong.

I've uploaded a new version that's back to working, after someone broke the sheet again.
I've taken down the Google Sheets version since people were consistently messing it up.
If you have any new distances, please post them in the thread here and I'll add them to the master version.

Now I'll just assume I'm the idiot that broke it.
