Looking at calling AA to see if I can make some tweaks to the itinerary - apparently they show some flexibility when they initiate schedule changes. Looking at two options
  1. Move to the last JFK=>LAX flight - more time spent in the JFK Flagship First lounge rather than loitering around LAX. Only about 3.5 hours to kill until the LAX lounge opens.
  2. Extend my LAX layover to about 22 hours and move my PHX flight to the evening - get a hotel, car hire and spend the day sightseeing in LA.
Not sure whether AA would go for b), but it's worth asking.
Answer - nope, they didn't go for b) - apparently the schedule change was too short (30 mins) to allow such a change.

However, they did make change a) listed above, so 90 minutes less spent hanging around LAX compared to my original schedule.

Surely thats enough to request a reroute via LAX in F on the Transcon?

AA have changed my outbound flights to now route via ORD instead of LAX.

before I look at options.. will AA allow routing direct from LHR to LAX and then PHX.. and then allowing me to apply for ORC?

I would look at your options of a reroute back through LAX and JFK (or even SFO/JFK). Although they may be open to a reroute on the direct LHR/LAX I would be most surprised if they allowed ORC given that this is for flights later in the year and certainly wouldn't count on it.

For the record, I just tried to cheekily reroute LAX/PHX to LAX/LAS/PHX but all they would do is a reprice. They wanted 6k. Let's hope for some more changes and then they might let me change to something else.

Somebody cannot count... (and I'm not just referring to how many glasses of LPGS you consumed before buying your ticket!)


It's 31 according to the entries in the wiki.

The HGI at PHX is now slightly cheaper in the Hilton sale. Around $80 for the night of the Do.

Yep ... and a slight change to my JFK-PHX flight also. I will continue to be 'Johnnie (Blue) Come Lately' to the 'DO' (landing into PHX around 23:00). but hopefully there will be a hardcore still going in the bar/pool.

I was going to accept the changes ... but JUST noticed the following at the bottom. Perhaps I can get to PHX earlier, by getting to JFK earlier, by spending less time 'On The Blue' in LHR T5 GF ?



p.s. I'm also going to check if my HGI booking was cancellable or not.
p.p.s. I also think there is a typo on the Wiki for my JFK-LHR flight.
p.p.p.s. You've got to love that MAN-DOH-AKL Biz Return price on QR. GBP1,350 ! I know it's just over GBP2/TP, but it's Flat Bed the whole way there and back.

... also just noticed that my Sun 26-Jul JFK-LHR flight departing at 21:30 is also BA114, which is shown as departing at 21:35. Could someone update the Wiki ? Scallywag72 ... we are on the same flight, but I think you may be downstairs in The Nose. Any chance you can send me up a glass of Blue ?

What should the wiki say?

Little known fact but HGI advance purchase are changeable in the states for a fee. Not worth it on this instance.

Hi @madfish ... thanks for this insight .... I was able to change my reservation for no charge online on Hilton App ... Upgraded to a Suite and also saved $14.05 ... Happy Days ...
This voucher entitles you you to a few drinks on me

By the way, do you know if the re-furbishment is complete at the hotel? Last message I got indicated that its still not complete.
