He asked if there was anything I could do to get him on the next flight for free and I just told him that he should have signd up for the loyalty program and due to his flight history he might have been higher up on the list. Some never learn and dont care too. I did let him know that he could go to the AA club using his AMEX Plat which he was unaware of:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

The AA club woman I spoke to once said that they will tag you as higher priority if you ask in the lounge. Of course, they didn't for me on my flight but that's besides the point.

This sounds sooo tempting. I have a friend from Munich who loves to find excusses to go back to the old office during that time. Work and play and the company pays for the flight and hotel

They AAngels could help or as a man of AA status you could call and try to help out to get some points with him if you think you need them.

I was looking at booking rewards to PRG to the MiniDo and I can book a coach roundtrip for 55,000 miles. That seems cheap to me? Am I missing something?

My daughter needs to replace her cell phone. She has a sidekick.
Is there any problems with purchasing one on EBay or am I asking for trouble?

Thats what I have always done. Just make sure you buy a NIB (New In Box) phone and not another used one with someone elses problems.

OK, I guess I thought it would be more. I may wait till the *A flights are loaded to look at flights. Or can one do that online?
