Doesn't make sense to me….I get them rebooking me on the Shuttle if my AA JFK-DCA cxld (which it did once and AA even paid for my car service to take me to LGA). But on the return trip the DCA-JFK had a fire emergency and delay at the gate (we boarded and were immediately ordered off because of smoke in the cabin on the CR7). I went to the US/AC Lounge and they re-booked me on DCA-LGA with no issues even though the AA flight wasn't cancelled and only ended up being delayed by 50 mins or so.
