Thanks as always FT family. So to further confuse we have a non-cancellable stay at the Fairmont Kea Lani. Not hotwire or priceline but another more complicated stay. So we are paying for and need to be on maui on the 25th. So I have fully researched other options in all classes. Does AA owe us anything for screwing up santa for the crew?
FWIW we will likley take cattle class to LAX, stay at one of the ok hotels there and then fly into ogg on xmas day.
