I'm just saying if people think AA is going to price PE @ 35K when standard economy is 30K, they are likely to be disappointed.


I think the discussion/rumor/speculation is simply that AA is going to announce premium economy award charts. I don't think anyone (certainly not me) is implying that all the sudden it's going to turn into the land of milk and honey with more award availability. Has anyone implied that? My assumption is that PE awards will likely be as scarce and hard to obtain as any other AA award, relatively speaking.

I was just informing why I would still find the range of PE mark-up over economy class to be a poor value for me and no reasonable incentive for me to increase my collection of AA miles from flying AA or AA program partner airlines.
