Using AA For Brazil Flights
I booked all my Brazil flights on AA since the status match I received last year from AA to Exec Platinum. I receive an upgrade on any fare class using systemwides on American and all have cleared (7 roundtrips to date on AA). This is better than playing the upgrade lottery on United with having to pay for a W class ticket with no certainty of an upgrade at a fare differential of more than $800 on every ticket between AA and a UA W class ticket to Brazil that I've booked to date.
