I had FCO-PHL-LGA during the holiday. Evening PHL-LGA gone and rebooked to next day. Chatted with AAgent and switched to FCO-LHR-JFK.
Maybe have them to do IAD or BWI nonstop on BA?

If they are cutting the route earlier this year in December, and wanting to rebook on AS via SEA/PDX, will likely just request a cancel for a refund and rebook on DL.
How difficult is AA to work with during cancellations like these? With DL there would be no push-back and a full refund if requested to go that route.
Full refund is definitely an option cause it sounds like they didn’t even rebook on another ANC flight.
They might be able willing to book on AS and/or combination with AA flights being oneworld if no workable AA flights.
Just do your research on Google Flights/ITA Matrix first and then spoon feed the desired flights to AAgent via X (direct messsage) or chat in AA app. The price shown doesn’t matter you just need to find a new set do flights with availability in same cabin.
I did just this morning no fuss.
