Here's one data point: Last Xmas I flew AA in D (biz) to GIG from MIA and then from GRU to DFW.
I found travel on AA between US and BR to be very pleasant experiences, other than op-up coming back went to a lifetime GLD instead of my 20-yr-old daughter. AA did the right thing IMHO, though she didn't see it that way at the time.
