We all know that the AA product is sliding downward, and yes it seems to get worst every year, for me. its all about collecting miles that allows my wife and myself to travel to places that we would not otherwise go.
Granted, award space is very hard to find, especially for 2 and of course we only will book in J or F.
That said, I respect your choice, and maybe after my travels to India dry up and have no business there, I might be in the same state,
but for now, I will stick with AA .
