Are Economy Web Specials ("EWS") just a front for AA to experiment with variable award pricing and less permissive changes? AA currently has the most permissive change policy on awards and the least variable award pricing between the big 3 U.S. airlines. The EWS frequently cost more, sometimes much more, than SAAver space, and the prices fluctuate wildly. Not sure what is so "Special" about 68K-115K one-way in economy between GIG and JFK with no changes allowed.
