so I’m going to leverage an answer to a different question and offer Carnival as the AB3 operator LAX-MIA, with the AA D10 on the final leg MIA-SJU
I'm at my sister's place in Colorado and since she's changed her password, I've got to use her desktop. She's asleep and this mouse is practically unmaneuverable - like the mouse pointer is on speed and good acid. So, a slight change from my usual format is called for...

So, you've got the routing down. Very straight - forward. OGG-HNL-LAX-MIA-SJU.
A DC-10 is involved, but it wasn't operated by AA and it wasn't flown between MIA and SJU
Carnival is not involved in this itinerary

So, thinking about what is known vs disproved, I sense greater clarity emerging in subsequent responses...
