ATL-DFW-HND award in J for 47K each, Comments?
I haven't booked AA miles lately since the mileage charts disappeared, so I wonder if I got a good deal, this is for late November. I have read on numerous forums that AA F/C on the 773 is not worth the extra miles. I suspect that the low mileage cost might be because evidently AA is just now starting HND service......I am NOT crazy about AA but I think this is a pretty good deal for a somewhat milieage-thin guy like me!

The OP would be saving about 21% off the cost of a Business Class MileSAAver award for this itinerary (although MileSAAver Business is not always available when a Business Web Special is). But unlike "regular" AAdvantage awards, Web Specials are completely non-changeable.

It should be part of the JV with JAL, which would mean its similarly catered to the JAL flights. I’ve not flown it, but I’ve heard good things.
