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?
yeah you can add a new travel “companion” with all your same info except an AS number instead of an AA number. It’ll look kind of weird but functionally it works great.

There’s no way to save the trips to your AA account (if your AS number is tied to the res), but it will easily save them in the app for you
