I am a newer AS MVP Gold over the last two years who just started booking a bunch of flights on AA this year. I am finding it really tricky to book on AA in that even when logged in to my AAdvantage account, tickets I book using my AS number don't show up in my profile. Also, when booking the ticket, I have to remove my AA number from the booking and it clears the profile - which requires a manual entry of everything such as name, DOB, KTN, AS FF number, etc. Is this just a workaround until they link programs more? I am coming from Star Alliance and 1K where you could enter your OA FF number when booking on other carriers and it would keep your profile intact. Is there an easier way to go about this on AA?
