Of course CX gets cash from AA every time we do so...

I believe CX Silver gets you access to CX's lounges only- right? Whereas if you hit AA PLT, you'd be OW Sapphire, and get into any of the 10 (soon to be 12) airlines' J lounges.

FYI. In Coach, only Y, B, and M CX fares mean anything on AAdvantage.

A CX Silver can access a CX or a CX-designated lounge if flying CX and KA only (but not other OW flights). No guest is allowed. AA PLT is better than CX Silver unless the member is flying CX and KA most of the time and wants to have CX lounge access.

In coach, only Y, B, and H (not M) CX booking classes can earn miles on AAdvantage.
