Ever talk to AA FF's, other than those that are just trying to win an argument on FT, you will find that many complain that they are never available. I fully agree that upgradable fares SHOULD cost two or three times the lowest possible fare, I have no problems with it, and that is the way it was for years. I have a problem when the cheapest M fare costs 4 or 5 times the cheapest available fare now, when the differential used to only be 2x.
Actually, I'm an AA loyalist and have never had problems getting an eVIP to clear. It doesn't always clear at the time of booking, but it does, eventually.
