Yikes -- fingers crossed! Yeah it does appear to be the only flight direct from the US. Other carriers you have to transfer in Argentina, Brazil, or Panama. When I called the AA EXP desk upon booking they said my chances were very good (at that time the cabin was like half full and apparently we were #1/#2 on list). Companion does not have EXP but on same itinerary so at this point I'm thinking it's not worth it to be split. As long as there are two open spots before departure we should be able to get it right if we are on same PNR? Is there any way for us to be bumped (do Y/B fares still go to the top).

Sent an email to the lounge asking if they take Priority pass for arrivals -- not hopeful, and even if they do I doubt they will escort me to fast track immigration.

Will keep you guys updated. Thanks

Edit: No one got upgraded It was a full flight about 7 days out all the way until boarding. In the end it was probably like J0 Y5 on a random Saturday in March...
