TP Calculator (SAV->ORD on AA shows as 0 TPs)
SAV - ORD on AA shows as 0 TPs in all booking classes. Is this a bug?
(I called up BAEC to query as I actually flew this route and was surprised to get 0 TPs and got a response saying 'we see the avios have posted in your account' which wasn't my question.... Is there a better way in future to deal with sits like this rather than calling them up and then getting a response that doesn't address my query?)

AA’s flights between ORD and SAV are oddities since the flight number 3272 is used on both the outbound and inbound directions. Bonkers, right?
I think this might be causing these flights to track strangely, presumably on the basis that the distance of flight 3272 is measured between ORD and ORD, thus zero miles.

I guess it makes sense to them, somehow, 'cos 'Mericans are dead clever.

(As for using the same flight number, it's because there's a real shortage due to the increased number of codeshares.)
