Yes, 100% Base miles + 50% COS Bonus (Class of Service) are EQM (Elite Qualifying Miles) and RDM (Redeemable Miles). The additional 200% is RDM only. If you are an AS Elite you will receive an additional Elite Bonus of 50% for MVP, 100% for MVPG & 125% for MVPG75K as RDM only.

EQM = 150% of miles flown
RDM = 350% No status, 400% MVP, 450% Gold and 475% 75K.

Plus elite bonus!!

400% total as mvp, 450% as MVPG, 475% as 75K.

Only 150% count towards status.

Caveat: Revenue tickets only, CX marketed and operated, etc, etc.

An A ticket wouldn't be an award! CX Native Flight numbers credit automatically on other partner's ticket stock as do JL, SQ, EK, KE & QF, etc etc.

Yes, the CX NYE FC fare was an A and since my status match didn't hit before my flight, it was 350% of the CX segments. Note: no AS earning for the Dragon segments though.

And two CX long-hauls per year in J or F will get you within spitting distance of MVPG. Plus a boatload of AS miles.

If you requested the match before your flight, customer service may (no guarantees) adjust it as a "one-time courtesy". It certainly can't hurt to call and ask.
