Yes. As stated in this thread, both LAA and LUS 2-class A321s now show up as 321, while 32B is reserved solely for the 3-class transcon.

This is actually related to the “Oasis” retrofit. Once all planes are reconfigured there won’t be a difference between an LAA or an LUS A321. However, given that the process hasn’t even started yet, they really jumped the gun on changing the designations on AA.com.
