AA does not have to show other carrier's rates any more than Wendy's has to offer Big Macs.

AA removed all non-paper ticket options a long time ago and they seem to have clamped down even further on showing OA space.

Indeed, NW has never allowed their flights to show on AA.com or UAL.com even when those carriers used to show more OA space.....
