I don't quite get this sequence of events.

That and going back and forth landside-airside is not exactly a wise idea.

ETA: Oh, OK, I saw your other posts, where you're planning on no-showing segments on pre-deval AA awards and flying to a different destination on a separate Avios CX ticket, etc.

I would yield to the estimable JonNYC in these posts:

Seems to me you're basically taking the opposite approach to his advice. Which is certainly your right, but I don't have better advice than he does.
