this is pretty standard for me for the past years, but this year flew less in OW. However upgrades were tough... even got downgraded and upgraded inside the flight in less than 5 minutes!!!

I am thinking the top % has to do with EQM. My wife barely has enough EQM to be PPro yet much more than enough EQM for ExPlat. No mention of the % for her.

Very interesting. I got top 11% in top EXP.
1. 133 hours in the sky.
2. 5 Times flown around the world.
3. 8 destinations visited.
4. Hong Kong - Most visited Destination
5. Late August - Earned EXP.
6. Top 11% ranked among EXP based on miles flown.
7. 140k+ from Elite bonus.
8. 58k+ miles earned without flying.
9. 10+ Upgrades received.
10. $420 Checked-bag savings.
Will probably be less upgrades coz I will fly even less AA in the near future!
The calculation took account of the other partner flight activities in the form of EQMs but not everything else.Here's a 30,000-foot view of our time together this year:
133Hours in the sky
Yes, 'our time' together, not 'OneWorld family time together'.
Well, at least good to have some statistics to see.

166 hours
4 Times round the world
16 destinations
Austin most visited
EXP: No percent listed - though I think the data doesn't like my use of CX and BA so may have ranked me low
81K bonus miles
32K earned without flying
385K Miles redeemed
30+ Upgrades received
No Bag savings listed - never check bags and travel light
Did the rough math - it's missing my CX and BA flights were they are on BA or CX flight numbers. Codeshare flights seems to be calculated correctly. Also the 16 cities - hmm, it seems to assume some connecting cities were just that vs ones I visited. I count 23 cities.
