I just changed from the Exec card to this card for two reasons: It saves $250 for the AC and you can use these points whereas saver awards are pretty useless. To me this is a defensive move to salvage the Exec card which has no real reason to exist with the old benefits on this card.
Wow, that's very true. I mean when you're going to an AC, you're almost always gonna be flying AA, since it's in the terminal. Some airports are a pain to transit between terminals. I've never been near an AC without flying AA.
