Family of 4 i got us all into J LHR-JFK in June, 2 SWUs and 2 25k miles + $350 awards. Right before the door slammed shut on the latter. Since then I got myself into J JFK-LHR for 60k miles- which is not so dissimilar to 25k + $350. But I had to bite my nails until 2-3 days before departure for the "price" to come down from ~180k miles. Agree this was a major F-U from AA- and now my one AA cc resides in the sock drawer (Exec MC for AC access.)
