AA Business DUB-West Coast/Hawaii 1500/$1700
The $2k cheap biz fare ex-DUB just got cheaper! Fare dropped to €1500/$1700, with plenty of availability. Destinations I've checked so fare are LAX/SFO/SEA/OGG/HNL. A great deal with the 115k bonus miles for the summer travel, valid on AA and BA
Adv purchase: 28 days
Availability: Outbound Jun 25-Aug 22, Nov 23- Nov 30, Dec 18 - Jan 04, Mar 28- April 12
I was worried a bit about requalify for EXP when moving to DUB, who knows could this be so easy

Can maximize the AA 12k RDM bonus for DFW-HNL by routing DUB-LHR-SFO-DFW-HNL (and vice versa).
Comes out to $2006 for 120300 RDM and 45130 EQP.
Add $670 each way to fly the LHR-SFO segment in F on the BA A380 (books into A, so it also bumps the RDM bonus from 3.5k to 12k for that segment).

I think it refers to both 115k-Promo (3xrt) and the year-long promo under the premise that you're already an EXP.
Anywho, the exact calc would be nice and if you'd want to jump ships - ask for a challenge into Platinum, which will probably be successful with this itin. If you get the challenge, you'll likely get Gold for the duration of that challenge, too.
If there's no big devaluation coming this/next year, many more will jump ships, including me.

So if you paid extra to get F, their would be no difference in EQP. F books as "A" which earns the same as "I" for EQP with the promotion. The most EQP you could earn would be closer to 31K routing DUB-LHR-SFO-HNL or as much as about 35K routing less direct ways (but adds slightly to the cost)

Slightly less at 119k RDM. Wish I had gotten in on this deal instead.I think it refers to both 115k-Promo (3xrt) and the year-long promo under the premise that you're already an EXP.

Here're the calculations for RDM and EQP - I just averaged the TATL premium bonus to 30k per RT:
