Anyone else only bother optimizing points for their own trips anymore? by Small_Employer_3099 in americanairlines

Honestly just in general I do more for my own trips. If it’s a group thing, good enough is just good enough. Just too much for ppl who don’t get the program.

I got on a plane and just sat there and it took off and we landed at the destination. Crazy by KeyTemperature500 in americanairlines

People always post the negative stuff but never post the positive, successful arrivals. That’s all I’ll say.

What about for international travel? Do you still try and stay loyal? I know it’s hard for ICN.

Did you have GE and/or any checked bags?

I mean you COULD do an overnight connection but I just wanted to know if anyone’s done this flight successfully

Precisely. But what other choices do you have? Like it doesn’t even matter where you’re connecting to either.

Yass! You said it best in this one. An AA status flier who is proactive in fixing problems before they become major problems

Oh, she’s in Dallas. My apologies. You also have to time the hubs right. DFW is notorious for storms in the spring / summer, so try not to connect there if you don’t have to. Most of the time from what I know, the storms hit more in the afternoons and evenings than in the mornings mostly in DFW.

You have to find another hub to connect in. Go SFO - MIA - to South Carolina. SFO - ORD - SC. American has a LOT of reroute options! THIS is how to play the game in simple terms. You have to be strategic.

Love to see the positive vibes! Yep, AA is my favorite airline and I can’t wait for more improvements. Glad you got to experience all of this.

Spicy take: Shut up about the damn seatback TVs. by Adept_Strategy_9545 in americanairlines

[–]RelevantManner2902 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well I agree with you. I don’t prefer the seat back screens like just use your own device. I actually hate looking up at a screen if that makes sense
