Instead, they jumped to the conclusion that I should sign up for the American Airlines Advantage program. They insisted that once I sign up, I will be able to view my domestic booking and access other features.

I don't understand why I need to sign up just to see a single flight. It seems as if AA has logged me out of my flight details.....
If you join AAdvantage and phone AA a chance/risk that new frequent flyer number will populate the complete QF-AA reservation over writing your QF ffn. For a 1hr flight don't take the risk.

From the OP's other thread
I hope this message finds you well! I’m thrilled to be boarding a plane soon to visit the USA.

By the time I start my journey, the entire fleet of Qantas Dreamliners will be back in operation across Australia. I will be flying on a Qantas 787-9 in Economy Class......
You may have a low-cheap fare class that does not include seat selection. https://www.aa.com/i18n/travel-info/...main-cabin.jsp

For the UA flight is a ffn shown? You will not get QF points, but could get Virgin Velocity VA points
