Interesting that googling for AA offices in Australia turns up a couple of lists of 'airlines in Australia' which includes an address for AA at 80 Clarence Street, Sydney - which is downtown, near Darling Harbour (though the listed phone number doesn't work). Presumably, they're long gone ...
This, however, is more recent (dated Dec 1, 2006) -
Dear Travel Professional:
American Airlines would like to advise that effective 30 November our travel centre office located in North Sydney has closed, and AA no longer has a public access office in Australia. The new contact details for Australia and New Zealand are as follows:
Reservations: Callers from Australia: 1800 673 486
Callers from New Zealand: 0800 445 442
Postal Address: Airport Central
Level 9, 241 O’Riordan Street
Mascot, NSW 2020 Australia

OK, back to the topic at hand ...
