It's an economical mileage run for AS status. I wouldn't bother with AA and their revenue requirements but maybe if this is bought through an agency or travel portal that codes it as a bulk fare, it could be very lucrative.

Wondering the same thing

777 doable on both ways, but is it really worth waking up this early?

3 overnights too. Not worth it. Would rather do a same-day turnaround with the overnight flight.

Doable with 2 overnights, but still, I sometimes do not understand why some want the 777 despite its time forces overnights on both sides... Not worth it,rather transfer at JFK, especially after aa went revenue based

Save an additional $30 per ticket if you book through Student Universe with code MEMDAY17. I'm not sure if they verify ages or not. Check the flight details though, because they are combining Economy with Business & First depending on the flight chosen.

Thanks! I booked that Saturday outbound. Need to do an immediate turn; still 777 one way is a bonus.

It looks like those of us planning to fly in from JFK have about 57 minutes to do an immediate turn if we're gonna get back on the same plane to JFK. According to Expertflyer, the MCT for PAP is 45 minutes... so I guess it's doable?

This happened to me while I was booking a flight with United. I had just searched for a different day and saw the deal had expired mid-booking. I was able to use the back error button and it allowed me to process the previous low quote, but I was stuck with those dates and didn't get to extend by the extra day like I had decided to do.

Whew, managed to hold one <10 min before the first post above indicated that the fare was dead! Now, to see if I'll actually be able to fly it...
