The flights to the larger markets typically have a higher frequency of flights which could make it easier to reaccommodate passengers, but there could be more passengers affected. My biggest hope is that they make the cancellations 48 hours in advance to give time to find alternative flights.
United has explicitly said they will maintain long haul intl and Hub-Hub, and I imagine AA will be the same - I fly hub to hub multiple times a week and I don't remember the last time there wasn't a deadheading crew on there.
