"The website “https://www.aa.com” would like to use your current location."
 
Is this message popping up every three seconds on AA.com for others as well? Whether I accept or not, the message returns.

Thought I was the only one that it was happening to. I clicked on "never" and it hasn't reappeared yet, good luck.

I saw it once in Chrome on Win 10 yesterday. I replied with Decline and haven't seen it again.

What op system and browser are you using?

Safari. Both on my laptop as well as on the AA app for my iPad.

I was getting it constantly over the weekend on my iPhone and iPad using Safari.

same here, but after declining it didn't pop up again. I'm on Firefox.

Same here. One "no" a day or two ago, and done, with Firefox.

My inner cynic predicts it won't be too long until AA disallows purchases if you won't share your location.

I'm sure they have dollar signs dancing in their eyes thinking of area-specific pricing.

You have way too much faith in their IT. ;)

Also, seems like "area-specific pricing" would already be encapsulated in the origin and destination, so there's really no reason to add this.
