I've been preaching forever for DFW/ORD-DXB. Of the two, ORD-DXB would be more sustainable... and might actually be a workable route, especially considering UA doesn't run it yet (they do through IAD).
ORD-BOM would be good too. I would actually think ORD-BOM makes more sense than ORD-DEL, which is losing AA money.
And US-AMS? JFK, ORD, DFW, it doesn't really matter. Please?
Oh, wishful thinking....

ORD-DEL is not losing money.
ORD-BOM presents some range issues with the 772ER. CO is stretching it with EWR-BOM, and ORD-BOM is 300 miles longer.

GSO
I am not that picky like all the other 'Big' requests.
I would like to see:
GSO - JFK
GSO - DCA
GSO - ORD (which was dropped a while back)

This contradicts what I have heard from at least two AA insiders (or persons otherwise connected to AA insiders), but your information might be more accurate.
With regard to the ORD-BOM range issue, you are correct - I didn't think about that. I understand that this route was strongly considered by AA, but don't know the reason it was eventually not added - the route range or the economics of it.

CLE-MIA
Started serivice 20 years ago with 1 roundtrip. One year had 2 roundtrips.
Downgraded to 2 RJ's, then 1 RJ, then Saturday only, ended all service 4 years ago. Large markets should have access to a hub airport like MIA.
At least have seasonal service.

Wouldn't that be a ~2.5 hour redeye? Seems a bit short to be useful as a redeye.
I would love to see some feeder flights westbound to connect to redeyes.
tus-lax
phx-lax
etc
Right now we have to take UA or WN from TUS, then experience the joys of LAX "priority" security lines when we get to the AA terminal.

First of all, PHX-ORD is a scheduled 3hr 15min flight on AA. Second, AA used to have red-eyes to DFW (which is less than 2.5 hours) and ORD at least seasonally. During the winter, there is a 2 hour time change, which makes red-eyes more feasible.

DTW-JFK timed for the evening international flights (and vice versa).
I have 0 interest in doing LGA-JFK connections no matter how much AA.com wants me to.

ORD or JFK-FCO/FCO-JFK or ORD on Thursdays and Sundays. Really makes travel to and from Italy difficult when schools close for spring break week at the end of March next year and you have to fly on either a Wednesday or Friday and come back on a Monday.

AA dropped this AE route a couple years ago, it would be great to see it return. [even if on an AE ERJ]
Pretty please AA. Pretty pretty please.
