Usually they will look to protect u on AA metal first, followed by JV partners and then non-JV ow partners. But it all depends on the route. Generally, they won't leave u hanging if ur upgrade has cleared and been re ticketed.

UOTE=longhorn11;28726000]Tried searching a few times and saw different experiences as far as IRROPS and miles+copay. If a flight does get canceled and there are no seats on AA metal, would you be rerouted via a OneWorld parter in J if your upgrade was confirmed?

I saw another answer earlier this year that your miles+copay ticket is protected at least on AA metal in case anything happened, but wondered what would happen if space was full elsewhere.

I'm debating using a miles+copay instead of an award ticket to make a run at EXP since I have some TPAC flights coming up, but I need that J seat for sure![/QUOTE]
