If I (exec plat) book an AA intern’al flight for my parents (no status) and not traveling with them, will they benefit from lounge access and preferred seat selection? Or nada unless I am with them?

Nada

Usually nada. Not sure if you can use a system wide upgrade on them though.

I wont be able because it is operated by Iberia

You could book a mileage ticket yourself, select their seats and then cancel your ticket. I’ve don’t this a couple of times.

Yeah, not sure how it would work with Iberia but on AA that wouldn’t be an issue. I’m assuming based on the agreements AA has with BA and Iberia, you could do something similar.

If flying Iberia look at using Amex points

Why? Is redemption easy and good?

Luggage delay claim question

I used Chase explorer to buy tickets for my vacation and luggages were delayed for a month. Per chase term I am entitled $100 a day for 3 days.

Is there a good way to handle this situation?
