I really appreciate it
Flight is J7 and wide open in business, no upgrade space though but that's not surprising. Given that you're flying on a Sunday night of a holiday weekend this is a slam dunk upgrade even without any status. In typical AA fashion though it probably won't clear till around 24-36 hrs before the flight, so I'd be watching your reservation hard starting Friday night and Saturday morning.
