1. Obviously only if you can use it.
2. Even more so.
3. I doubt that.
depends when in the year and if you are flying to PHL or continuing to NYC

This was on hold, then purchased while availability was drying up. Now it's "on request."

Just got the email confirmation.

(This is the return leg)

They deducted the full miles for business, and my hold says business. I'll try selecting seats.

EDIT



US shows business class. Maybe AA hasn't updated the text associated with U?

My BA email doesn't say any cabin. But on the USAirways website it says "Business (U)" and I was able to select seats.

Yeah, but beggars can't be choosers. We'll take the little one to a park or something and make a day of it.

You may be able to switch to an earlier flight in economy if you prefer. Up to you

It actually came out to 720K+$3,400.

I may have done it for the hilarity that is about to ensue.  Well it already has ensued, got a whole whopper of a tale from one agent.
