[…] Hat tip to Miles to Memories […]
AA is so frustrating to deal with. Got this offer today, registered; app and website show platinum status, but it won’t let me pick an elite seat or main cabin extra. The upgrades are not there.
I called in, and they said it’ll take up to a week for me to actually be able to use any benefits. I have a flight on Sunday (they don’t work tomorrow and Sunday) and so I asked if they can manually give me a better seat – they said, no. “system doesn’t allow it”.
Even UA is not this broken.
