Actually this cant be more wrong lately. Outside of 1 or 2 flights, all of my Asia trips the past 2-3 years (NRT and PEK) have been fairly light in the back. But I fly in *great* months like January,...

This is 100% now based on EQD running average. My upgrade % is sitting at about 95% since that change. I cant complain at all.

Paging JonNYC...

My assumption is yes if they did not "ban" you from the airline, just banning you from the AAdvantage program.

But remember if you reticket later (like SWU clears) then it reverts back to a normal ticket. And good luck arguing with AAdvantage that it's a special fare (unlike AA Vacations which AA specifically...

One word of advice. Dont do this at 1am after an 18 hour day and "sit down on the bed" for a few minutes. You could wake up 5 hours later with a very steamy room. Not that I would know anything...

No there doesnt have to be a physical seat, but it has to be 24 hours in advance. So you cant use this as a last minute, switch flight things.

Never had a problem with this. Just swap yourself on boarding and when the FA asks your mom, have her tell the FA you swapped.

Nope. Keep in mind an A330 shows up in Phoenix for Hawaii, which has to come from somewhere. My assumption is that it comes from CLT on a turn. So AA could also fund the crews for PHX similarly, with...
