Why must AA taunt me with its comfy Y seats, decent service, and very nice Admiral's Clubs at DFW, after I've already credited a number of AA segments to BA this year. :rolleyes:

When reviewing my time for the remainder the year I realized I burned through my time a lot faster that I usually would. By March, I had already used more than 3 weeks between Hong Kong, London, Las Vegas and the DO this year. Most of my leisure trips are about 4-5 days in length Wednesday/Thursday to Sunday or some variation over a weekend so I can work 40 hours before and after the trip to minimize the impact on my benefit time. After Florida in July and NRT in Nov, I will have 16 hours of Holiday time remaining. :eek:

I have to say AA was nice except for their old filthy plans, but the crews were ^

I think you should go for it.

It may become my main program next year depending on what happens with CO/UA.

I was on a combination of ATR-72, 2x ERJ-145, and MD-83 this weekend, and each of the aircraft were in good condition. I may start using AA more often. Lack of priority boarding is not such an issue on the regional aircraft (where I have to gate-check my main carry-on), and my Amex Plat gets me AC access. I might look into a Plat challenge later this year, and complete it by using AA to Europe.

The plane hadn't been outside the US as far back as I could trace it (at least per the PDA site yesterday). I guess I've never chilled/warmed a can multiple times, so that could be it.

I refuse to fly AA unless it is the only choice, the way they did not communicate last week with my family that was flying only reinforces it, a flight was delayed over 4 hours on rolling delays and no communications from them at all, their regular operations are a mess.

Doesn't have anything to do with where the planes has been. Can sodas are removed from all aircrafts at some point in time, taken back to the kitchen and redistribute to other flights. It's always interesting to see if you get a foreign Coke on a flight.

Just out of curiosity did you fill out the "contact me" part in the rez system?

I ask as three weeks ago AA pooh-poohed the last flight of the day from TPA-MIA just to hack me off, but the computer did call as soon as that happened. Moreover, when I called back in I was able to get the ticket pushed over to US and make it back to IAH.

My son is going to have surgery to plate his broken collar bone. He doesn't have to have it but the way the break is, with one bone sticking up close to the skin, we (that would be me) decided to fix this the proper way so that he doesn't have issues with pain later.
