AA340 has run pretty much every night @ 11:20pm w/ service to MIA. See the attached AA Cargo Domestic Widebody schedule. This flight has been on the schedule for several months, and is forward scheduled at the same time for upcoming months as well.
I think you might be referencing the non-AA340 flights earlier in the day.... that has been a menagerie of 77W/772/788/789/321 over the last 2 years. They were plugging in widebodies left and right for this route when the Int'l markets were closed due to COVID. As you can see in the attachment, Flt#1228 is a mix of 772 + 788 for the month of October, but not nearly as much widebody lift as we saw in 2020 + 2021.
Perhaps with AA getting back down to 1x daily on this 77W service to MIA, the lack of frequency is causing the issue with lounge attendant familiarity re: access policy?
