Even by the old "dragon" standards, I'm amazed multiple AC staffers have gone out of their way to keep this kid out of ACs systemwide. There might be more to the story here, even if booze wasn't involved.
1. 2 years of allowing me into the AC, to secure a lifetime of loyalty to AA would get pretty close to outweighing the liability of these 2 years IMO. Especially as a mid level EP who's spend and flights keeps increasing every year.
2. It was 1 agent who flagged it. I am pretty sure the flag is gone now after I was stuck in MIA overnight last week.
