All of my April flights have posted. Nothing yet for 5/1, 5/2 & 5/3. That will be a good grouping of flights (along with today's flight) to get an idea of the new posting lag.

I spoke to B/E customer service today. Even though Advantage miles posted to my account with Iberia ticket numbers (4 flights in April) B/E shows flight segments with notation that flights were not flown. This also happened to a colleague on Iberia flights. B/E customer service said that We have to send an email to customer service and not use the flight credit link. 2 AA segments flown in May not posted as well. Buggy!

I love the change to daily posting.

Most of my April flights posted on 5.2.19.
The remainder of April posted on 5.3.19.
My flight of 5.3.19 posted on 5.6.19.
On 5.7.19 I submitted a flight credit request for the flights that did not post (5.1 & 5.2). Those flights were credited this morning.

I am impressed!

My May hasn't posted yet, but I noticed that my AA account's postings have been much quicker. It's a shame you bearly earn for these flights anymore.

Upgrade Questions
 
A couple questions. Searched high and low with no luck. So, here goes:

Can you use a BXP1 on an award ticket?
Can you use a BXP1 to go from Y --> J (if available) and then use a 2nd one J--> F (assuming 3 class and if available)?

No and no.

EXP/CK can upgrade North America award tickets with UDU/500-mi upgrade privileges, but outside of that you can not upgrade an award ticket with any upgrade instrument (SWU, miles/copay, BE upgrade cert) and similarly you cannot do double upgrades with any upgrade instrument as well.

Yesterday, I had a BA flight post to BE, but that flight still has not posted the EQM/EQD/RDM to regular AA.

..... Thanks

QQ... I think I've read that you can. But if I use an upgrade cert now can I pull it back later if it appears I'll get my normal upgrade as plat pro?

I'm not aware of any upgrade instrument with AA (SWU, miles/copay, BE cert) where you can't just call AA and have the request removed if you no longer want to upgrade (or want to upgrade with a different method).

I have a BA marketed flight operated by Iberia. I added my Business Extraa number in BA booking system.
Do I need to add this to Iberia booking as well ? I did not find a way to add that in Iberia
booking. Any advice is appreciated...Thanks.

Is there any way to extend the expiration dates of points? I have some expiring end of year and I am fully booked on flights (and upgrades).

I could be wrong, but can't you get the upgrade cert for this year and that gives you 1 year to use it?
Flight Award Redemption maybe?

Anyone else having issues with https://business.aa.com/ ? I find flights to use my cert on, but the page just loads up and reloads, reloads, reloads more and more flights and I cannot select anything.

That's consistent with my experience. It has never worked smoothly or reliably for me.
