it is easy for it to cater for an attempt to drop a sector where it is married to another segment to ensure that both segments would need to be dropped
that was not true last year, you didn’t need current availability on segments you weren’t changing.
Whether it’s possible to do it right is irrelevant. I don’t think it’s easy to know and record at time of booking that stand alone segments were not available. its not just a Y/N question when booking AA-BB CC-DD-EE
If one knows there is separate segment award availability, as well as married segment availability, how can one ensure that AA recognizes that and allows changes to one segment regardless of current availability on the others
