From the above quote, it appears that unless LAX-BOS is operated as 3 class, no dice. Granted, it's not an official AA notice, but it does seem to indicate that 2-class F pax would not be admitted (which is a change from current policy which states that only pax booked in Z or F class are admitted to the FL).
