- Make a seperate reservation for MIA-SAN non-stop and simply hand the agent the 2 coupons when you check in for the flight. Probably not allowed under the rules, but would certainly not be less costly to AA then doing option 1 or 2.</font>
It's a direct, not a non-stop. Just book AA 2091 seperately for each segment of the direct if you want that flight.
I agree with Rich, though, that it's too much hassle than its worth. Basically, you will get back $75. It will probably take upwards of 3-4 hours of your time and potentially quite a bit of aggrevation. Personally, I wouldn't bother. Also consider that depending on when you bought the ticket, you might end up paying the fees that start back up in the near future. Something like a security fee? That could whittle away your $75 savings if you haven't paid it and I don't know that they would ask you for it at this point.
