EF vs KVS
Not trying to start an all-out flamewar here, but I was wondering what you all think about KVS's tool vs ExpertFlyer. I see significant pros and cons to each, but want to standardize on only one tool. I fly AA exclusively.

I think KVS is a great tool. But for me, flying AA is all about getting to sit in F. Being able to see upgrade inventory is critical, and you have that available on EF.

OP's inquiry appears to have to do more with an AA-specific question, than the broader issue that is implied by the thread's subject...
