As of October, with "One system. One code." AA policies will prevail.

I just confronted this for the first time this week also. The real question to me is whether the US policy ends up becoming the new AA policy at some point. Clearly Parker and Co like it or it would be that way at US

I'm on a CRJ flight this afternoon (US metal) and was able to select exit rows for myself and my girlfriend (both Plats) without paying anything extra. Thankfully we got a bump to F as it's about a 2 hour flight (I'm 6'5", so I feel asdf098's pain). Have you tried calling the Plat desk to ask what the deal is?

Which doesn't preclude future change, of course.
Just like they could instate a more revenue based elite status (Points based, fare based, etc.) after all, the other two USA carriers have done so, BA and IB have done so and Cathay Pacific has announced they'll overhaul Marco Polo Club to do so. Mene, mene, tekel, upharsin. Or possibly, not.
