Do you have to pay with the CC you use to match the class of service? E.g., 7,500 mile discount (flights 500+ miles) for AAdvantage® Aviator® Business MasterCard®, do I have to use the Aviator biz cc to pay?

Also, what do you do with the award code? Give to the booking agent on the phone?

Regarding the award code–yes, have it ready to give to the agent. Make sure they do not try to charge you for booking over the phone. One time I had an agent try to emphasize that he was doing me a favor by not charging me. Since you cannot book these any other way but calling in, they are not supposed to add the fee.

I hope they keep these, a good 75% of my travel in the last 2 years or so has been with these.

With the Web Specials fares being introduced, I don’t see the reduced mileage awards being long for this world. On many routes I’ve checked I see plenty of variably priced Web Specials, and significantly fewer Saaver seats. I hope I’m wrong, since my home/nearby airports are always included in these specials.

Combined with the terrible 2 week close-in blackout of Saaver award seats, AA continues to make domestic points redemptions worse and worse.
