How on earth would the computer know the original time of something which << poof >> disappeared? :confused:

If it's any consolation, when your request went bye-bye, so did everyone else's on that same flight.

Well, there could be a backup type list - it's quite common in the databases I work on. Though that is assuming quite a bit for AA. :D

That is true, I did not think of that! ^ Still doesn't quite answer my question whether it's based on time of upgrade request or original ticketing time (all within elite level of course).

And like a good FTer, I of course requested the day I got my email. :cool:

If your upgrade clears in advance, it's a moot point. Yet I believe it's based on time of upgrade request.

If it goes to a tie-breaker situation at the gate, it's based on time of check-in.

Under the new schedule, it looks like AA is finally replacing those crappy MD-80s with more widebody flight and even a couple of 763's. That's the way to go!!

You might want to share which routes those are... I sure don't see a 763 on my LAX-SFO flight :p

Oopz......I don't know why I neglect to say. It's DFW-LAX-DFW. They use to have a 777 couple of years back.

Only because the MD-80's will be replacing the departing TWA 757's on other routes.
