Welcome to Flyertalk, Okynot.
You might want to take a more proactive approach to ensure that AA credits your account. Double check at the gate that your AAdvantage number is correct on your locator record and boarding passes. Be sure to hang on to your boarding passes so that if the miles fail to post you'll have proof of your flights.
By the way, your post should have been made in the General Flyertalk forum, where more folks might see it and be willing to help you. The Buzz is for the discussion of the latest frequenet flyer buzz ... Thanks.
