Talked to an elite agent to see if there was an EUA problem - said no - they are holding almost all FC seats now and virtually nothing is clearing at the 5 day window.
I am VERY VERY VERY close to jumping to NW. Hell my AA plat could easily get to EX. Plat this year with an effort.
What is wrong with this airline!
Why not go for AA Ex. Plat???? AA has those awesome 777s flying from MIA - JFK, MIA - DFW, DFW - ORD, DFW - LAX. Ex. Plats get unlimited complimentary upgrades, and when upgrading on the 777 on domestic flight, you actually get the international First Class suites, not Business Class.
I have been a Plat with AA for two years now, and in all this time, I have only missed 1 upgrade, so imagine your chances as an AA Ex. Plat!!!!!!!!!
