This one was quite aggravating - not just because of the error, but also because of AA's non-response.
On 29 Dec (or so), I was searching for award travel on 1 January LAX-PHL. The mileage pricing options came up with 1 January on the left side (the trip summary).
When I clicked on the flight, though, it changed me to 31 December. No notice that it had changed other than the new date in the flight summary.
I booked it not realizing, but only noticed because I was adding it to my calendar. Good thing - otherwise I would have been in a pretty bad mood at the airport (and I'm certain AA wouldn't have helped m).
I emailed it to AA. Their response was "oh it looks like you've got it corrected now" and that was it.
I could repeat the error on their site afterwards and even took screen shots.

AA.com account access issues
Just tried doing OLCI for a flight tomorrow. Logged into my account and my account is zeroed out, with no biographical info either! (I previously had 430k miles). It shows my member-since date as Today (instead of 1995), and all sorts of "sorry, we're currently experiencing issues" boxes everywhere. Can't do OLCI as well. Boo! Hope everything's ok in AA IT Land.....

FYI OLCI via the App worked just fine. Still no upgrade though on DCA-PHX :-\

Just booked an award ticket for 1/22. Unfortunately, the header says Thursday, January 21, while the flight details say January 22. I'm assuming this is the same glitch as earlier in this thread, except I actually booked the ticket. How concerned should I be?

Trip disappeared
I saw some posts last month about trips disappearing or otherwise not showing up under "My Trips." It just happened to me this evening - I booked a trip using my company web site, it showed up under My Trips but when I clicked on it I got some errors including one that said something about the itinerary being removed! I can find it using the record locator, and verified it had the correct FFN, but it hasn't come back after several hours. Is anyone else seeing anything like that?

My SWU cleared last night, so I went online to select seats, all fine except out of the four flights on the reservation, the first flight (today) is now at the bottom of the list. Also on the app - it's now the last flight, and the app opens to show me my domestic flight tomorrow instead of the international flight today.
Complimentary domestic upgrade which cleared two days ago still shows as "requested" and OLCI didn't work - it said my birthday associated with my passport is wrong. Very strange.

AA.com is telling me no flights from SFO-BTR or SFO-MSY on April 8, and nothing coming up on Google Flights. Tried April 7 as well, just in case, nada. I'm guessing this is a glitch.
ETA: Looks like April 4-May 4 for MSY, April 4-April 30 for BTR. EF shows flights, AA.com and Google Flights do not. Maybe they're mucking with the schedule.
