AS award on American seat inventory?
I'm trying to book AA using Alaska Miles but there is NONE first class seat available on the website but when i checked on AA.com and BA.com. There is a seat available. I called Alaska they said they don't have the same award availability. is that true? they said what you can see on the website is what we can book for you.

AA site shows seats available to those using AA members. If they do not show on the AS site they are not Mileage SAAver awards.
If you are going to use the AA site look for the circled options in the image below

AA Award Availabilty for Mileage Plan Members
Wow, we not only lost all perks, AA is nearly gone for awards, Air France is going but most if not all award flights already pulled.
Yes Condor is on now, they yanked my biz class ticket with no notice, Frankfurt Condor airport staffing are the worst Ive ever experienced, I spoke with 10 others, same exp. flight attendants were great but its a low rent airline.
I hope Finn Air turns out OK.
The Caribbean is gone. Europe rough. when Virgin member are going for the same rewards, it will get worse.
I wish I had better news.

Meanwhile, AA awards being sparse is not new. This thread was started over a year ago:

Rather than using words such as "gone" why not explain exactly what you want to do and when. As you can see, many people are doing just fine. But, neither you nor they are a good sample and thus, if those other people said "plentiful" it would be wrong too.
If you want help and advice, please explain what you are looking for.
