If you utilize this option, will you still earn the online booking bonus for the tickets; or is the bonus gone because the booking is completed by a phone agent?</font>
In my experience, once you have booked on AA.com, you will get the online booking bonus irrespective of how you complete the ticketing. I was told that the booking bonus associates itself with the record locator so even if you were to change a flight on an online reservation by calling in (web services/regular) you will still get the bonus.
