After reading about improved availability, I have been looking at some of my favorite routes. No luck - with all the increased levels for NA EC, there still does not seem to be improved availability from LHR to Asia and other destinations I was interested in.

Ironically, I plan to use my over 500,000 miles on free NA tix for family and friends and possibly let my BA status lapse and just stick to AA EXP and Star statuses.
