New booking dates please / and change policy.. Thx..
Hello - When will AA airlines open the next round of booking dates? I am looking to travel Thanksgiving week 2021. With new change policy it seems like a no brainer to book early without consequence. Am I understanding this right? I am not an avid traveler.
Thank you,
Kyle
Thank you,

I believe dates are loaded at 330 days ahead so Thanksgiving isn't available yet. Look at the aa.com site and the calendar where you can calculate the waiting time for the dates you want to book.

No brainer as long as you are confident that you will be able to use the credit at some other time if you cancel the flights. Or you can change the flights for free. Domestic flight?

Yes! AA finally called me back. They said if I use miles they put them back into my account and If I pay cash it is a travel credit for one year. Thanks again...!

When will this be changed? I was ok, until AA decided on additional restrictions for using flight credit. I was told that in October they changed the rules so that credit for MAIN cannot be used for BASIC
I just noticed they changed a flight I had in B to a different flight in 0. So, apparently if I didn't like the change, I would be able to cancel and later use the credit for B.
I have also never been able to select flight credit on the payment screen and get it to work

Isn’t the ticket value good for a year from issue? So you could cancel and rebook, but not beyond 365 days of the initial purchase.
or am I wrong.
