Rooms that go all the way through to payment processing, then they say the award level changed and you must acknowledge the new award (which is the same as it was previously) and when you click to proceed it loops back to the same failure message - but charges your card on every attempt. It's just really poorly-implemented and I agree that you really need to value those returns to make it worth using. In many cases, I still do. But man...
The booking engine is much improved from 12 months ago, unfortunately. The one and only reason to book via AA Hotels is loyalty points.
