- Recipients are solely and entirely responsible for the payment of any fees or taxes associated with the use of a gifted SWU (e.g. United Kingdom Air Passenger Duty).
- This thread is NOT for the discussion of ethics, entitlement, or nomination of charities/groups as recipients. (Donating instruments for use in charity auctions or as prizes is prohibited by AAdvantage T&C.)
- If anybody offers to sell, buy, barter or trade SWU by PM, please contact the moderators immediately, as this is a violation of AAdvantage and FlyerTalk rules. Appropriate disciplinary action will be taken.
Thanks everyone!

3 SWUs left to give away
I managed to give away 1 of the 4 after posting a few days ago...3 more to go if there are any takers... I'm happy to try to use on flights without instant availability. If J looks open at this stage there's a good chance you'll clear off the waitlist. Anyone flying in next 4 days (apart from ex-LHR), PM me with PNR/name/email/flight number...

Thank you to all of you kind souls who are so generously offering your SWUs. I should know this but I don't - they just have to be confirmed by 2/28, right? They can be used for a flight AFTER 2/28 as long as the SWU is applied by then? My wife and I are flying via PEK in early March and have a fighting chance, but I don't want to ask for SWUs that won't clear by then
