A lot but hesitate to mention in case they decide to get rid of him (one thing I DONT like about any airline - any advantage seems like something they will take away)

- AA mile redemption for international travel
- Free wifi especially on regionals which I have to fly a lot
- upgrade availability flying into smaller markets is great
- increase of first class on regionals
- Lounge AAngels and EXP line are SO important when things go sideways. They are able to hold seats and do reroutings that other airlines dont seem to be able to do
I did a status match to United last year due to a couple of flights coming up and the service to a top tier flyer was practically non-existent in comparison. Unfortunately we had to test it out
- Lounges. Only had to wait to enter once unlike Centurion, Delta etc. Food continues to rotate and improve, bartenders friendly. Like the newer decor - seems to be quieter as well
- yes safety. Had some delays due to equipment issues but I'd rather be safe
- Last flights out for the night do tend to wait for connecting passengers especially on regionals

Smaller but noticeable
- Major increase in PDB on most of my flights in the last 6 months
-improvement in service overall on domestic flights lately. Have I just been lucky?
