The heads-up on AA business class space to Europe being wide open was really valuable to me, redeeming any time I've wasted reading VFTW over the past couple years. It's been perhaps 20 years since I've seen award availability like this for peak summer travel from the West Coast to Europe. The flights onward from London are currently the toughest part, but even those are pretty easy.
I finally get to unload some of my AA miles stash.
Agreed on all counts here. I've got some 5-day holds on some decent tickets.
