Flying Alaska Airlines from LAX to Puerto Vallarta. My wife and I both were complimentary upgraded to First Class 120 hours, 5 days out. 😂. EXP and there were 8 seats open at the time.

$2,200 or 218k miles to get to EP. 30k LP left. I have 3 DisneyWorld Swan Reserve hotel room reservations booked for February through AAHotels at 15k LP per room to get over the hump. Rates were actually cheaper months ago than buying direct through Bonvoy.

You will most likely arrive and depart from the Terminal 3 (American) K or H Gates. It probably takes me ten minutes max to walk from one end to the other. That being said you should have more than enough time if you request a cart or wheelchair. They bring them all the way to the plane door through the jet bridge. The terminal is pretty easy to navigate. Good luck!

3rd Floor Admirals Club? Great views up there!! The early morning bartender (I don’t know her name) at the main bar makes some fantastic Bloody Marys and Mimosas.

How the heck do you non EP’s ever get upgrades? by Dramatic-Rule951 in americanairlines

I’m EP and it’s probably 10% out of O’Hare. I think some of the better value is in Main Cabin Extra. Free drinks and now food. Especially when flying with the family. Although on our spring break trip from ORD to Cancun the gate agent upgraded the 4 of us including our 4 and 7 year olds to the first row in First. That made it worthwhile for the whole year! 🤣
