I'm actually unsure myself, but I'm ok with the dates

AA is free 24 hr cancellation anyway if I recall, so you would be mad not to impulse book

no you can’t move it without reprice. Only after you fly at least one segment it will reprice at historic fare which for a F fare should be 0 unless otherwise specify in the rules

i have cancelled mine.

US entry policy forbids people transit in EU. So it only works for US person.

Moroccan policy also has Spain on their "B List" of countries which adds complexity. There was mention of needing a negative PCR test result within 48 hours of arrival. I'm sure rules/restrictions will change over the coming weeks/months too.

US policy is unlikely to change in autumn, winter or next spring, which should be the worse seasons for COVID-19 comparing to now.

Yes, you have four different countries in the mix. Morocco, Spain, UK and US. My point was that entry requirements will inevitably change for at least one of these countries over the coming months. I wasn't suggesting you should book if you're not eligible to enter the US right now - rather I'm saying there is "immigration risk" in this fare since any one of the countries could add restrictions and blow your itinerary out of the water.

I don't even dare to think what the other fares are if this one you actually decided to share. Great one, thanks OP

Matrix shows plenty of availability for the one-way F fare ex-CMN in May. Using Powertools to book on AA US goes all the way through but fails at the payment stage, saying at least one of the flights is no longer available. That's not the issue, though, as the same flights are available from ITA (over and over).

Powertools -> AA.com or Bookwithmatrix -> AA.com is not working, however, the fare is still bookable via 3rd party travel agents and Bookwithmatrix -> Priceline.

I've been able to book it directly with AA even when bookwithmatrix goes to the error page. I just search CMN-MIA as a one way and it brings up the F fare. I haven't had any luck with the A fares.

Haven't tried for one-way so I can't comment

Every time I use Powertools to go to Priceline, it defaults to an economy fare. When I research on Priceline for F, the cheapest I get is $10.1K on AF. Same thing with Bookwithmatrix.

Hey guys, I'm glad some of you were able to take advantage of the fare. It's truly a really, really good one. Also, it seems like someone called AA to book their ticket last night - not sure if that killed the fare, but rule #1 with these kinds of fares is to never call in as that's a sure way of getting the fare removed, ruining the fun for the rest of us. If you have difficulty booking, ask here, as there are plenty of us that are more than happy to help.

I booked one of the A return fares earlier today just using GF and its link to AA. No BA transatlantic legs unfortunately. I'm not quick with Matrix, so hurried with GF to get something booked.

I don't see the same prices on GF at this point.

This deal should be ideal for my travel plans! Hopefully AA cooperates. Thanks so much OP!
