- SAS Go Light fares
- Basic economy on any airline other than AC (is it just need a fare basis that ends in GT?)
- Ineligible codeshares, like EY-marketed, EY-operated, AC-ticketed

Solved:
Incorrect, pending confirmation from original posters:
Likely correct, just somewhat high % due to small distances:
Definitely wrong, but I haven't identified the root cause yet:
- PEK-ULN: clearly a 50% earning fare; deleted
- ZRH-ICN: was entered in wrong cell, actually YYZ-IAH distance; deleted
- BKK-HKG: had two different entries in the two halves of the table, one of which was 1065 (<2% different from haversine), although no idea where 1172 came from; fixed
- FLR-SFO: actually FRA-SFO distance - how did @canadiancow not catch that?!
; deleted - YYZ-SLC: 1902 was Comfort fare, base was 1654; fixed
- YYZ-TPA: same as BKK-HKG, one entry was about right, haven't figured out where the incorrect one came from; fixed
- LAX-RAR: another with different data in the two halves, looks like it was just a typo (4682 vs 4982); fixed
Incorrect, pending confirmation from original posters:
- YOW-YEG: @YZF_Elite
- DEN-DFW: @MillennialMiles
Likely correct, just somewhat high % due to small distances:
- ICN-PEK
- MUC-TXL
- YEG-YYC
- VIE-ZAG
- FRA-VIE: I can confirm this one, actually. I got 187 on a 50% earning fare in 2018, so 373 is definitely closer than 385
Definitely wrong, but I haven't identified the root cause yet:
- FLR-LHR: definitely entered in the wrong cell, just haven't figured out where it came from yet
- DEN-SNA: not sure
- LHR-VIE: off by right about 30%. Did OS have 70% earning fares at some point?
- DXB-VIE: same
- ISL-VIE: same
- KUL-PEK: this wouldn't be OS, probably CA, but same?

Haversine is calculated. There's "Haversine", "Old Aeroplan", and "Aeroplan".
But 3920 is still a very great data point, thanks.

Well, this is a new one for me. Flew IDA-DEN-YVR recently on an Aeroplan reward. The IDA-DEN segment was on UA in economy. The DEN-YVR was in business. I just checked my account and the IDA-DEN posted as a revenue flight, giving me 571 SQM (including a 114 class of service bonus, despite being an economy segment) 1 SQS and 69 SQD.
Has anyone else had this happen?

It also means that @ac/elite has the new YVR-DEN distance, and hopefully will share that too.

I will be flying YVR-DEN in late September and will report back on the current mileage if we still only have the old Aeroplan information by then.

YUL-FCO
@Adam Smith and @canadiancow, YUL-FCO (or vice-versa as in table) is now 4086 (a loss of 5 miles).
