I just bought an e-ticket for a HKG-NRT trip, el cheapo fare, on my MPC number (lowly green, but not for long, since I've given enough blood at AA already and its time to fill up the MPC account). The ticket receipt, right below the booking reference, has an entry that reads "NAME REF: ** GRADE A ***". Anybody know what that means? Other companions on this flight with me do not have an equivalent notation.

I like to think that I'm important and special, like a fresh farm egg, but maybe it doesn't mean anything...
