Well put Randy.

I, for one, believe that the $100 change fees with AA award tickets is a positive change. What everyone is looking at is $100. Read between the lines and you would see that it creates more award opportunities. ( 14 Day extension with availability and no extension in a last award seat scenario )

With AA not matching any of the changes that other airlines have made in the past 6 months, I personally believe that my AA miles are more valuable than they were before.
