AA does not give 200% bonus folks...one can sell back their "stickers" or "points" and relinquish their upgrades to F in order to get that 200%....but that's a big step....sitting in the back is just not for me...even in MRTC. Travelling from EWR, I would have to make more connections on AA than I could imagine....a complete waste of time. That's a REAL BIG factor in my decision to stay with CO....that..and of course my 100% domestic upgrades....
