• What is the Boarding and Flexibility Package?
As of Jun 15, 2010, AA began offering non-elite passengers traveling in coach a Boarding and Flexibility Package at the time of reservation. The package offers boarding in Group 1, free standby for an earlier flight on the same day, and a $75 discount on the regular $150 service charge for flight changes to non-refundable tickets. The package costs an additional $9, 14, or 19 each way ($18, 28, or 38 round-trip), depending on distance, and includes connections. The package is available only within the U.S. 48 contiguous states, and must be purchased for the entire itinerary and all travelers in the reservation. Those traveling on AAdvantage Award Tickets are not eligible for the package.
Boarding in Group 1 is also offered as a stand-alone product at self-service kiosks, up to one hour prior to departure. Those traveling on AAdvantage Award Tickets are eligible for this option.
