Hi Guys - just wanted to confirm if status credits are calculated any differently on a RTW ticket?  I have a Europe and Americas trip coming up next month and am having trouble confirming total SC earn.  Any help appreciated or tips on maximising SC earn on OW. Cheers. Lee.


Currently :
MEL to CDG (CX)
CDG to MIA (AA)
MIA to MTY (AA)
MTY to DFW (AA)
DFW to DTW (AA)
DTW to DFW (AA)
DFW to SAT (AA)
SAT to DFW (AA)
DFW to SYD (QF)
SYD to MEL (QF)

No. Calculated the same. 

You just need to understand the booking class and how that maps.

Generally L for Economy, D for Business an A for First.

Note that following recent AA changes to US domestic flights these will now only earn Business status credits, despite being marketed as First

Also you need to calculate by flight segment.

Assume MEL-CDG is actually MEL-HKG-CDG (note you would get double SCs taking QF on the first leg)
Also not sure what MTY is meant to refer to, maybe you mean MBJ Montego Bay

Qantas had a pretty good calculator on its website. Search for Qantas Earning Points & Status Credits Calculator
