Does it make sense that I see guest business available on Etihad site, as well as on expert flyer, but AA call center does not see it? (They only see the economy seats)

Not sure if AA is still having issues, but try calling AUS line.

I'm having a similar issue with ana. I called aa to cross check, the US number didn't see anything and the Australian number found them after asking to check individual segments.

I asked to check individual segments as well, first segment is economy which she found, second segment is business and they said no avail, expert flyer is showing 9 business seats avail on that flight

There seems to be an issue with some partners not seeing some seats. EY EF and AZ were all showing 9 seats on multiple days and they couldn't see them. There were other dates and routes that they could see.

Has anyone had success in booking Brussels Airlines J JFK BRU JFK or vice versa using 37K EY points? if yes what EY call center you called and how did you check availability before calling?.

I have J booked on EY with AA miles, does anyone know how close to the flight can I upgrade to F if it becomes available? Does AA have some limitation i.e. cannot touch the ticket within 24 or x amount of hours prior to flight? or can I upgrade up until the flight

I asked this up thread about a year ago but didn't find a clear answer yet. Is there anyone here who connected through AUH / DOH /DXB with an Israeli passport, or know of someone who did? Most answered I'm getting from people are that it SHOULD be OK, or they don't see an issue. But looking for someone with experience

Ended up going Etihad via AUH. Wife had no issue at all. (Gate agent in JFK even tried speaking to us in Hebrew)

We stayed in AUH transit hotel overnight was very decent

I met israelis who have flown QR LARANCA DOH BKK with no issues what's so ever.

Unless you have a kosher phone which somehow allows DDF, but not AA.com, this post seems to be the height of laziness.

sorry just cant read charts.. 62.5 k AA miles LHR-AUH in F is what i think i see on AA.com. looked too cheap to be correct

AJK · « **Reply #539 on:** February 12, 2017, 11:10:54 PM »

Considering it used to be 40k...
