That's a great suggestion!

Wow: There were a whopping 40 comments in the first few days on the BA docket and 2 on the AA one. Most DOT cases get nothing from the public at large.

Additional comments, experiences etc. are incredibly valuable: the more there are, the faster a resolution and the less likely are AA/BA going to be able to claim that YQs are of no import. If you haven't done so, please add your comment:

Changed my trip idea from going to Ireland/Brussels/Amsterdam to Copenhagen/Brussels/Amsterdam. Only $200+ in fees/taxes for 2 of us and only 80,000 miles for the 2 of us economy round trip.

Ireland will wait 'till another day!

Redeem BA miles to fly Aer Lingus from Boston - Dublin for only 25,000 Avios in economy or 50,000 Avios in Business Class (roundtrip) w/ no fuel surcharges! See http://thepointsguy.com/2012/04/usin...el-surcharges/ for more information.
