I would argue AGAINST an impending AA devaluation because of AA's alleged financial insecurity. AA will want to keep their frequent flyers loyal in the face of a potential bankruptcy/reorg and should (IMO) keep their program as is for the next year or two. I'll be sure to tell AA this when they contact me to get my opinion.
