How long does it take to hit the airline systems with these rates?

Not too long ago I was checking FC with BDL as departing city and I had not seen these fares.
Do you guys think this will be available on AA soon?

Since it's not yet on aa.com, can I purchase the next highest restricted fare there ($321) and then claim the "lowest fare guarantee" based on travelocity or expedia's fare?

Yeah, can we? I mean, for the days I'm looking at, it's $134.60 on Travelocity, $1071 on AA.com for EXACTLY the same flights...

When I try to price out the 12:30 AM departure, and the 11:45 AM return on AA.com, I only get the First Class "P" fare to come up, no coach, so watch out what you book.

Also, don't book a fare with an Alaska segment in it because that will kill the price match... has to be all AA metal.
