Although DEN-LAX is flown by Eagle, LAX is most certainly a hub for American. AA's "Cornerstone Strategy" includes their 5 hubs (DFW, MIA, NYC, ORD, and LAX)
I am an AA Lifetime Plat (2 Million Miles), and have just started flying Frontier this year since I relocated to Denver. There are good things about Frontier, especially for a family. When I fly with my wife and young children, upgrades are a non-issue. Plus, the stretch seating is nice, since we're not allowed in Exit Row until the kids are much older. But, I still fly AA when I can, and I use the Admiral's Club @ Concourse A. Since I cannot redeem on Frontier for exotic destinations/international travel, I am still keeping my AA MasterCard and flying AA whenever convenient.
