There is a lot of overlap of partners of AA & AS. AS are partners with several OneWorld airlines (AA BA CX LA QF). AS partner with Emirates EK. AA partner with Eithad EY.

AS award routes are limited. Look at the AS award chart

Nominally all the awards to partners come from the same bucket. For example 1 only QF F award seat is nominally available to QF, AA, BA, LA, CX and AS. At times your own ffp may show more availability that to partners (its a black art:- yield management)
