Being primarily an AA flyer, the various award "fees" are an insult. To charge $50 or $75 to "expedite" an electronic award or to charge $100 to "re-deposit" award mileage is insane! At least before the advent of "e-ticket" awards, one could claim an award certificate and keep it handy for last minute travel, thus avoiding "expedite fees." Of course, EXPs are exempt from these fees, making it look like one more EXP "privilege." But who does aa think they're kidding? Waiving the fee for EXPs isn't an EXP privelege at all...it's just a dis-AAdvantage for Golds, Plats and everyone else who has to pay it!!
