Accuracy of aa.com's destination map
Searched for a thread using the word destination and map and don't think I saw anything. Was looking at the aa.com map:
http://www.aa.com/i18n/aboutUs/where...maps/world.jsp
and it shows ZRH as a destination from DFW. Made sure to uncheck connections and it still showed up. This route was cancelled quite sometime back right?

Even though "Add AA Connections" was unchecked, it showed up for me but said "1 stop: JFK."

The map is done by Innovata after ingesting OAG (or similar) data, and they do an excellent job.
However, apparently AA did not turn on the filter to exclude direct flights (willingly or not), so DFW-ZRH does show (with the notation 1 stop: JFK) as effective 03SEP13 two loosely related flights are going to be sold as AA 64 (the DFW JFK operated by a 738 with the JFK ZRH operated by a 763) -- a through flight.

Got my hopes up.
