Depends on the minimum stay requirement for ticket A. But, will AA care enough to come back and make you pay the fare difference? Probably not.

Absolutely not, unless USA (city) = USA (city). If it is the same city then, as skunker pointed out, it depends on the minimum stay requirements for Ticket A.

Yes it would be the same city... I and a friend are going to Korea twice...

So...

Jan - Ticket A - NYC-ICN
Jan (15 days later) - Ticket B - ICN-NYC
Mar - Ticket B - NYC-ICN
Mar - Ticket A - ICN-NYC

It would save $1000 x 2 tickets. We would buy business from USA and first from ICN.

These posts were moved out of the 'Premium Fare' thread in Mileage Run Deals forum which is reserved for posting of First or Business class fares only. As this isn't a MR it's been moved here to the Korea forum for further debate.

There should be no problem. I've done this many times without any issues.
