She used the word appreciate, which made me think it was connected to a topic we had discussed, and it was in reference to the Aadvantage program. I pressed, but she would not give more information |
Introduction of PE awards at current J sAAver levels. J and F awards go up.
Gotta stay optimistic. |
Out of the blue Status giveaways to people that don’t fly AA, upping the bennies (yawn) midyear to fly 150K/200K/250K, the usual buyup offers at year end, and now this. All signs of an exodus and AA is noticing...whether they actually do anything to reverse elites leaving (or ‘left’ in the case of myself) remain to be seen. |
Following the historical trend, EXP qualifying EQDs raised to $18K..

Indeed availability is more important for those of us who have the miles. But how many people pay cash for PE anyway? They should make lots of awards available, especially if priced at 45-50K...but probably won't. |

The info from JonNYC is not so useful without an award chart. Will they price it closer to J than to Y, in the hope of making people think it is a premium product?
Also, why would a disgruntled ExPlat become gruntled because of this?

Last week SIN-IAH was 1000 in Y, 1400 in W and 4500 in J one way. There wasn't a chance I was going to spend 4500 one way on J - I'm far too cheap for that. I booked PE and applies a SWU from NRT to DFW. PE on JL is excellent, I cleared to J on AA and I got the bonus EQMs. No brainer, IMO. |
PE awards will be appreciated and add a bit of value for some members which will be a positive change.
If AA wants to add tremendous value to the program for EXPs. They can adopt similar SDFC rules to UA’s SDC program. This for me will be huge. Just wanted to throw this out there. |
Gold will have their own boarding group? :p

Wild speculation...USA-Europe, currently 30K in Y, 60K in J. I think 35K in PE would be reasonable. But I bet it will be 45K or 50K.
But yes, I think somewhere in the 35-40k range for PE to Europe would be reasonable. |

57.5k for J! Stop giving AA any more ideas! :p

exeplat using swu on his/her own to be booked into I class instead of C class.

AA is a horrible ffp with no redeeming qualities, and it is getting worse and worse, did you tell her that?
