I tried to book it on AA.com when I was at AC in JFK.
I saw only 3 options(paid by credit card, paid by GC and one more option I don't remember), no Hold 24 hours option for the purchase.

After applying 4Gcs and confirmed zero remainning balance, I selected "purchase" for thefinal step but got an error meg.

Did the same thing with same GCs but got the same error,

A few hours later at AC in MIA, I checked my reservation on AA.com andfond that the 1st reservation was ticketed and 2nd one was "on reqest".

Very strange, never happened to me before....
I had a tough time using the GCs to buy my husband a RT to MUC last year with legs on IB and AA, some codeshares and some not. I kept entering the GCs and got an error message when trying to purchase. I think I was successful on my fourth try.

I was going to buy a few more of these after my next CC statement closed but oh well. The cards did bring me to 2 local Costcos I would've never visited otherwise.
