Thank you for this info. I read the details on AA's web site and I'm still not 100%... would a paid upgrade from Economy land us in Premium Economy, or in Business class? I don't know if Premium Economy is considered its own "next cabin of service." Thanks.
Just call AA, and let the agent know you want to do a Mileage+Co-pay upgrade on the flight, can't hurt.
