We booked S and N fare classes for a flight more than 72 hrs in the future, both eligible for AA Plat to get Premium Class after purchase, which is what happened. What was unclear to me was whether the benefit would be extended to a companion, which it was.

Yes, I had AS flights on 3/1 & 3/2 which still haven't posted.
I tried to do online request for flight credit but it rejects AS ticket numbers and Airlines are not included with their other partner requests for missing points.

I had AS flights on 3/7 and 3/9 that have not posted. I was able to do an online request for credit, but haven't heard anything back yet.

Yes I am in the same boat. AS flight on 2/28 posted the next day. AS flights on 3/2 still hasn't posted. I filled out the missing mileage form today. Interestingly, the first time I tried to submit the form it was rejected because it didn't accept the AS ticket number. I just clicked "Continue" again and it went through to the next screen.

Did you try clicking "Continue" a second time after receiving the error? That seemed to allow me to progress to the data entry screen.

I posted this a few weeks ago and thought my question was merged to this thread but don't see it so apologies if it is here and i missed it.
If I book an ORD-SNA operated by AA, but on a codeshare through Alaska, will I get the in-app or desktop offers to buy up to First Class? AA is selling the flight I want for $299 and AS has it priced at $199. Thanks

I'm AA EXP (no AS status) and booked an AS codeshare operated by AA (AS Coach, "M" fare), approx two weeks out from travel. Check in happened on AA app, but when I got to the airport, noticed I wasn't on the upgrade wait list. I did however have the usual group 1 boarding and free MCE access that I would typically expect, so my status is present for some of the amenities...just no upgrades wait list?
I was a bit confused, especially flying AA metal with EXP printed on my ticket. Maybe it actually would have worked better had it been on AS metal...
So I called the EXP line, and they said they couldn't do anything on their end, try the airport AAgents, but neither the front desk nor the gate agent could manually move me onto the upgrade wait list either.
Is this expected codeshare upgrade behavior?
Cheers,
Mike

I can't seem to find confirmation RE how many bag waivers AS elites now earn when flying AA...? Apologies if I missed this elsewhere!

You can use a 3rd party app, such as TripIt, to house all of your travel (including car and hotel). See the TravelTools forum for more info.

So I booked a trip on Alaska as a Plt pro. Allowed me to select premium seats after I put my AA number in, shows my correct baggage allowance and one world emerald however after I checkin I do not show on the upgrade list. Anyone knows what gives? I even called two weeks ago and the agent confirmed I was waitlisted...
