I have 75k status with Alaska and called AA to inquire about a status challenge and was told I would have to pay $750 to participate. Needless to say I'm sticking with Alaska.

In the midst of booking an award flight, the AA website kicked me out of the booking and when I went back in, miles doubled?? Do I have any recourse?

(By kicked out, I literally was at the payment screen and when I clicked the button to reserve, a window came up saying there was an error. I tried refreshing but same error message. Then a whole new page appeared with a plane taking off and the only links were “Home Page”, “Book New Flight”, or “AAdvantage Account”)

Hi. If I book in my AA acct a domestic JetBlue flight (say 2 months ahead) AND I need to cancel (say 2 weeks ahead).
Will I get a refund or at least a Trip Credit or similar in my AA acct ??

What’s a reasonable amounof time to receive partner lps? I’ve completed the outbound portion of a 30+ hr itinerary 2 days ago but lps haven’t shown up.

trip purchased through IB website, flights on BA, IB, QR. I called IB with my Aadvantage number immediately after booking.

the booking seemed a bit messed up-when I checked in with BA for my first flight he said the ticket was disconnected and did something to fix it. He was only able to check me in for the BA and IB segments; I had to check in with QR when I got to MAD. The BA guy said he didn’t see my Aadvantage no so I had him re-add it.

is this delay normal or should I follow up. The website says “3 days after flying “-does that mean the entire itinerary? Eg can’t expect LPs till I complete inbound? I’m kinda eager to get my LPs from outbound because I’ll hit platinum pro/owe from them whicj of course will be nice for trip home.

Two days is nothing for not seeing partner flight credit, especially for a complex itinerary like that, unfortunately I would give at least a week before submitting the request.

I’m at about 45 days since my BA marketed IB operated flight not crediting. Wouldn’t hold your breath.

Flying DFW-LGA on AA541 and was diverted to JFK due to fog.

They let people off the plane but our bags will stay on the plane. They are trying to make it to LGA but keep delaying us. 75% of people have left the plane.

If we choose to leave at JFK, does anyone know what will happen to our bags?

will they deliver them to us? I get the fog delayed things, but I don’t understand why AA want badly to get to LGA. We could’ve cabbed there quicker. But they won’t give us bags back.

Airlines like Delta and Alaska have a 20-min baggage guarantee (or they will give you vouchers/miles if they fail to deliver your bag to the carousel in time). AA...well, AA does not have such a guarantee.

I find on average AA bags take closer to 30 minutes to come out to the carousel, and the Priority tag is generally ignored. 99% of the time, you won't be waiting for hours...but if you happened to have lounge access when you land, pop in for a bite/drink/bio break to kill some time versus being crowded at bag claim.

I am flying LHR-DFW-LAS in A/J on BA/AA and returning in J/A does that give me FL and FFD in both directions?

I have searched and think I get FL but not sure about FFD. Thanks - still searching and it looks like a No for FFD in either direction

In looking for JFK-TPA, I can find several nonstops operated by Jet Blue for $. But trying to book with AA miles, no flights operated by Jet Blue are listed. How does one use AA miles to book Jet Blue-operated flights? Googling says you can, but I cannot seem to find out how…

Partner award flights are all capacity controlled by the partner. When such flights are available, they will show up on an AAdvantage award search. Here's one example:

Thanks for this.
I was finding it odd that there are zero JFK-TPA nonstop award flights from Jun-Nov available. There are several flights per day, at about $100.

guv1976

If it's any consolation, paying 12,500 AA miles plus $5.60 instead of paying $100 for a cash ticket generally would be a very poor use of AA miles. (But AAdvantage flight awards are fully refundable, so there is that.)

WannaTheater

Agreed. The actual intent is to add on a domestic segment to a potential international award reservation. So if I have HKG-JFK, I am looking to find JFK-TPA. Everything I am finding for award is on AA metal connecting, but I know there are Jet Blue nonstops on the same day. My thinking was to find the Jet Blue award first…then see if it could actually be added.
