See page 13 for specifics. No mention of MCT in the policy document, but I'd definitely make sure that I satisfied the MCT. Dunno if 60 min for AA D to D at ATL satisfies the MCT, but I assume it would.
I would book the 7:03 flight to ORD. 60 minutes is plenty of time.
Hmmm, that document is actually pretty awesome. I know that either late last year or early this year OW decided that it would be up to the carriers to book connecting passengers through. I'm assuming AA is continuing this practice even though they are not required to do so.. I have no idea why the agent told me they are not responsible for delays... perhaps they didn't know the actual rules or they know something new is coming?
