Very wishful thinking. Unless they've changed them in the past 2 years, the AA seats are not even at international business quality. They have footrests, but the pitch is similar to UA 2 class configurations. AA has the edge certainly, but I remember too many DFW-OGG segments where I just couldn't sleep because of the seats.
