3. What are the stopover rules?

I have done some research on blogs, but could not find great and recent answers to my questions. I would appreciate your help. Thanks a million!
1) There is no charge to cancel any award booked with AA miles.

2) Any business or first class award you can find that involves partner carriers will still be at a fixed rate and thus a "sweet spot". Also some domestic and short haul awards are not bad deals either. Just search aa.com to get a feel for what costs what.

3) Stopovers are not allowed on any award booked with AA miles.
