The main point to consider is what flights to your final destination would be available on AA itself for award travel when rescheduling becomes necessary since AA cannot guarantee award travel on partner flights.
I would disagree here, I have flown Pbi to Bos well over fifty times in the last five years, taking the first flight out of Pbi connecting thru either CLT or PHL, i have never actually missed a single connection though they are always tight, now there have been instances where I have changed prior to the first flight because the equipment didn’t make it in the night before, both CLT and PHL have a lot of service to Bos. Your odds are much better with an early morning flight, than a mid day flight. Keep in mind the first connection is a domestic connection the intl connection is in Boston.
