Yep. One of my favorites as well. I typically fly in J or F but used to get these all the time for in-laws that want to visit. (I almost never fly them in J). I always thought these 40k RT were one of the best redemption for miles. I still remember the glory days when you could hit Buenos Aires and do a free stop over in Rio. That was great!
Before AA declared bankruptcy, they weren't too difficult to find if you plan in advance but now it's been almost impossible.
