On the phone, the agent told me that there had been a schedule change and they cancelled my original flight. ALL nonstop flights on May 2 from MIA to LGA are now on a 737MAX. She said that UAL has canceled all MAX flights through June and that probably AA will follow UAL’s suit. Otherwise, the only way to avoid a MAX is to change planes somewhere. She advised patience.
I am amazed. Do AA schedulers not read the internet, newspapers or watch TV?
On Dec 12, AA announce the MAX schedule resumption for April 7. Until AA makes another announcement, then they aren't going to take them off the schedule.
This may change later, and UA might be being overly cautious about the schedule, but nobody knows when MAX will be back in service
