2LNR reads award seats on 2,559 American Airlines routes, 263,600 route-dates in the next 331 days, and 145,544 of them showed at least one open seat when we last checked. A network this size releases space unevenly: the routes below are where AA award seats open most often, and each links to that route's schedule. The cabins read are Economy, Premium Economy, Business, and First. What is counted is the award bucket 2LNR tracks for American Airlines in each cabin, never a price.
