Some (me included) may not know the eligibility has changed so now a OWE travelling in any cabin can access AA flagship check in at JFK regardless of cabin, although AA have excluded Executive Platinum customers traveling solely on North American itineraries. Previously I think it was just for CK and those in F on a three class service.
