Should be available via multi-city, but aa.com is FUBAR'd with the update. Lemme see where I can send you to book this.

Orbitz will book it, but it's a bit FUBAR'd too. If it clears the page and you have to re-enter everything, just do it. It'll eventually book correctly. aa.com thinks the return from MGA is before the outbound, silly people!

Failing at both... Obviously first time. The DFW-bos-DFW is that meant to be direct?

Do it the old-fashioned way. Just call AA.
The BOS/LGA trips work just as well, but you expose yourself to NE weather on two days in a row. That's my only concern when your dates are so limited.

Phone... Novel concept.
Agreed on NE weather and combined with LGA being a general disaster... Also weighed the concept of getting stuck in Nicaragua
