I don't know the details, but the US State Dept. doesn't provide escorts for everyone; so I'm assuming these are VIP's (?). Was AA informed in advance of this group. If my assumptions are correct, I think just from a publicity angle, that AA would have made special efforts to deal with this "special" group.
