No disagreement there, but nrr might want to wander the aisles of their local Costco - there's plenty of stuff at good prices.

I'm sorry, but that's not even in the realm of possibility. AA isn't "going away." Its stated plans are to emerge from Ch 11 as American Airlines. Even if Doug Parker completes his intended hostile takeover, he has already said that the name remains American Airlines.

Nobody here knows exactly why the cards are being discontinued, but you can be certain that it's not in preparation of "AA going away."
