$75 fee:

-21+ days prior to departure is based on the departing city time zone, not the booking city time zone.

EDIT: I managed to call in and have them waive the fee when it was within 21 days in departing city time zone but not by booking city time zone

UPDATE: AA has removed all close-in fees

Big whoop.  Separate itineraries come back to bite him. AA didnt protect OW itinerary. Thats his only legit gripe. DOT complaint should fix that.

it seems that when I search for flights from AMM Qatar space shows up, when I do the same from TLV RJ shows but not Qatar. Same goes for EY.
Is it possible to put them on the same itinerary? on the web or only phone?

Only on the phone. Will not show up online due to obvious reasons. Should be one award on one itinerary.
