and that's what I said. Buying a one-way BOS-LAX now will not raise any flags because there are no flags to raise.

Will AA put 2+2 together once he skips the final segment during his SNN trip? Possible, but I doubt AA would even care and let's be honest....do you give their system that much credit? I don't, especially since the one way is 5 days later......

IMHO it takes a lot more than 1 trip to get the attention of the revenue people. YMMV
