I don't know about the rest of you but I'd prefer that AA not follow DL on very many mileage program features.

well you might also want to add into AA a great big fat large co-pay too

now i know our VIPs are good on any fare (have no idea how they work at DL) but for mileage upgrades, what makes them meaningless to me is the huge AA copay that is required along with the miles.
