Does chase IP provide the same trip protection benefits to award tickets that the sapphire does?

AA flight delayed by 1½ hours, can I arrive 1½ hours later to the airport, or can/will they refuse to check luggage?

If its the last flight of the day, you definitely should not. Happened to a friend here in CLE and they said that TSA or whoever has to handle the luggage was gone for the day.

And YMMV, sometimes they end up leaving on time. You can track where the previous flight is coming from to get an idea of the accuracy.

The shipping is not doubled with additional boxes.  It goes up just a bit per additional box ordered.

Don't know much about upgrades and am seeking expert advice here!

Currently rebooked from cancelled DL flight on DL. They can rebook me on a partner as it get's in earlier (cancelled flight was mechanical). Expertflyer is showing 4 seats in J. Flight would be Sunday night. The plan would be to use flying blue miles to upgrade the Air France full-fare Y ticket that DL would put me on. Is that how it works/does that make sense?

And what are the upgrade chances, roughly?

Not a question, but I guess you guys aren't kidding when saying that AA became a mess. Look at the on-time performance for this flight (and many other SA flights aren't much behind)...

i was looking for a flight on Priceline that i had seen on the matrix. i happened to come across a flight that wasn't there (on ITAMatrix) that's half the price. i'm wondering what's wrong with it.
here is the flight info:

Airways France
operated by Hi Fly
direct flight from JFK>CDG
$537.20

the next cheapest flight is a little over $900. what am i missing?
My greatest achievement? I am fluent in FRIENDS quotes

Does a AA business reward ticket for a domestic flight get you access to the Aa lounge?
