I would double check with your credit card company regarding the interest. I know if you dispute a charge you do not have to pay the amount in question while they are investigating. I would assume (hope?) you wouldn't have to pay the interest especially if the charge was ultimately reversed.
Has it always taken this long to get a refund from AA or is this just because they've laid off 20% of their employees?
