And, I really don't think the agent in the FL had anything to do with the SSSS. It happens. Last week I got it twice on two different airlines (not AA) even though my global entry is in their system and I normally get precheck.

I don't begrudge OP asking if he could move to an earlier flight. In the old days, AC Aangels used to be able to do a lot of things like that. That being said, the Galleries First Lounge at LHR is a really great place to hang out in for a couple of hours :)
To ask is one thing, but to make pointless threats when you don't get what you want is totally unacceptable. |

I don't think anyone is really saying "how dare he have asked to be changed to an earlier flight!" It's more along the lines of he asked, and when he didn't get want he wanted he threw a temper tantrum. That's more along the lines of what most people are getting at.

https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/28785509-post41.html Stick to the facts, please and don't feed into the OP's wacky conspiracy theory. AA employees at LHR are able to do things that increase or decrease the chances of an AA passenger ending up with the SSSS flag on AA boarding passes. And that post from FlyerBeek isn't news to me. And as someone very familiar with long-haul flying on AA via LHR, I already know the SSSS hits are routine, rather frequent but not completely common for such circumstances as that of the OP. The OP's claim to try to use EC261/2004 as leverage against a lounge attendant to change a flight and then that "threat" resulting in SSSS sounds wacky, but wacky isn't a conspiracy theory. |

[QUOTE=Cofyknsult;28786396]Aren't we almost all immigrants
Actually no, most people in the world are not immigrants. |
There is nothing wrong in OP asking AA to change his ticket for free even absent proper inventory.
OP went way, way over the line when he argued to the agent that he ought to be afforded a freebie because he had saved AA money on some prior occasion by not telling others about their due under EC 261/2004 and then threatening the agent with financial harm to AA if she did not do as he asked and contrary to her terms of employment. Whether that resulted in his "SSSS" or not is irrelevant. It sealed forever any possibility that anybody might help him out under some circumstance because you may be assured that the agent recounted the conversation in the PNR notes. |

Yes, more people will get the meaning if we say "frozen screen" or similar. :)
