Before you direct me to call, I thought I'd get the correct answer here since dealing with meeting services is akin to dealing with an animal at the zoo.
You must have Paper certificate and they only batch mail twice a week. I offered to pick up at HDQ or have AA employees that are friends pick up... but no dice. They must mail to you which means a minimum of 3-4 days notice IF you catch the batch right and youre willing to eat the Overnight charges for FedEx. Otgerwise plan on 1-2 weeks
