not earning my AA flyer points?

[onlycopunk]

I'm a member of QF and right now I'm doing a fair bit of travelling in the US with American Airlines, while I am earning half points on the International legs, I'm not earning any points with domestic flights. Is this normal? I'm also so close in status points to reaching the next level I want to earn it while I'm tavelling to reap the benefits.

Have a look at the section for American Airlines in the Qantas earning table: Frequent Flyer - About the Program - Terms & Conditions

You basically need to be booked into an eligible class to earn points.

Your AA ticket should show you what booking class you are in.

dang, probably something i should've looked into before I chose my flights. although AA were the cheapest option anyways.

Open an AA account online and credit the non-eligible flights to AAdvantage instead of QF. It may even be worth signing up for the Platinum Challenge.
