.... which is the kind of situation that was driving this previously asked question:
.... any chance AA might .... include Sri Lanka in the Ind sub continent?
If a sub-24-hour connection via CMB is possible on a single award for travel between the Americas and the Subcontinent/Middle East, it seems reasonable enough to relocate Sri Lanka into the Subcontinent/ME award zone if AA were to choose to just shuffle Sri Lanka into the Subcontinent/ME zone for award travel pricing purposes. I wouldn't be surprised if this kind of shuffle happens, even as I expect not everyone would be thrilled by CMB being taken out of Asia2.
