Stick to the facts, please and don't feed into the OP's wacky conspiracy theory.

I already stuck to the facts.

AA employees at LHR are able to do things that increase or decrease the chances of an AA passenger ending up with the SSSS flag on AA boarding passes.

And that post from FlyerBeek isn't news to me. And as someone very familiar with long-haul flying on AA via LHR, I already know the SSSS hits are routine, rather frequent but not completely common for such circumstances as that of the OP.

The OP's claim to try to use EC261/2004 as leverage against a lounge attendant to change a flight and then that "threat" resulting in SSSS sounds wacky, but wacky isn't a conspiracy theory.
