RDM: 23,552 (No status); 28,262 (Silver); 30,617 (Gold); 32,972 (Plat); 37,683 (Diam)

This looks pretty good as usually I keep my status with AA.

If I see this correctly I would be pretty close to hitting the silver status. However for the MQD: would I really receive the full amount?

thanks

I'm also mostly an AA flyer, and this is my first year trying out Delta. I have no experience with Aeromexico, but one J flight on China Eastern got me $6000 MQD. Depending on which particular partner, Delta tends to be more generous than AA in awarding partner MQD. I believe that AA's partner J EQD maxes out at 25% miles flown, whereas Delta's partner MQD tops out at 40% miles flown.

What website you use to choose the seats? https://www.aeromexico.com/en-us/man...ooking/options is failing on me but someone used some other website?

Thanks!

Thanks!

I booked through Expedia.com and was able to via Expedia website. Orbitz should be the same. Not sure on any other sites.

Actually, AA does allow up to 30cpm flown in some cases to be credited to EQD's

Interesting. I had two flights booked on Orbitz but I cannot choose a seat on neither Orbitz or Aeromexico site. It did automatically assign 1A for all my itinerary though.

Hello!
I managed to buy 2 tickets. What is the best plan for me to score my miles for status?

Probably credit to Delta Skymiles if you are starting from scratch and US-based

I had 1A's pre-selected for me on all 4 legs when I checked my reservation the first few days after making the reservation. I couldn't change them on AM's website. I logged in today and am now able to change seats.

Just checked and still doesn't work for me. I am going to guess it has to do with how far the date is away since my first flight is mid-Nov.

Starting to feel pretty confident this is going to stick.

Orbitz. And no, I never call the airline until everything is good. I'll be perfectly fine in 1A if needs be.

Not sure if this works for you, but there seems to be different aero mexico landing sites. I was able to change my seat on the "world" url. https://world.aeromexico.com/en/mana...-trip/?site=us
