2. Anyone knows if I cancel a hold on AA, inventory will become available to AS almost immediately as it'll be for AA? I have a J seat held on AA while I wait for points to post since I couldn't get it on AS. Would prefer to book it with AS since I have tons of miles to burn.
1) Yes, you can cancel the half you do not need. That is actually the final step in the reverse round-trip strategy.
2) I have no experience with that so I cannot say.
