The AA Advantage Executive Platinum number with almost no waiting time has ended. Had to wait 16 minutes. Does anyone have the new good number?


According to Wiki in "Starwood Starpoints Transfer To Airline Miles Master Thread" Starwood > Aerplan transfers..."Aeroplan - Names don't need to match. - Usually takes about a day and half to 2 days to transfer."

I believe they're referring to making a change and then canceling the reservation within 24 hours of making the change but it's not working anymore because they started charging for changes again

Also, can't make changes online. Not worth calling and sitting on hold for hours.

Is there anywhere online that says whether an AC status pass gives three 50 lb bags or 70 lb?I used one and they let 70 lb with no issue, but then when using another the check in agent insisted that it only covers 50 lb bags and made a big deal of it. The blogs all say 70 lb but this link just says three bags. Looking for something that I can print or a screenshot to show the check in agent.

it should match orignal account status of 3*70lbs if too much of an issue pay it and they will refund on backend

This is a nice addition, especially since call centre wait times have been so long.

Is Aeroplan not able to book award tickets on Ethiopian? I’m finding space on United but cannot find a single ticket available on Aeroplan.

Trying to piece together an Aeroplan award from BKK to NYC via AUH in J.  Individual legs are available but are not pricing out together. 

Q1: Is this doable through Aeroplan?
Q2: If yes, is there a way to assemble it without having to call-in?  I keep getting booted as the queues appear to be incredibly long...

The multi-city stopover function is limited because you need to choose a minimum 1 day stopover. Its also not available in the app.
