You may be able to avoid the $20 phone booking charge by first placing a reservation on hold at aa.com and then calling up AAdvantage to have them reduce the cost of the award by 7,500 miles and ask for the fee to waived since it was originally booked on their website.

-People have also had success booking a one-way award for 8,750 miles (3,750 reduced miles)

what about an already booked flight
Disappointed Toronto did not make cut.
Yup! It’s all about the Rep…!!! In my personal experience, never call around 8:00AM or 5:00PM because they just start their day in the morning or make a quick pik-n-hang until time to get off. Best of all, I usually made phone calls to AA customer service around 2-3:00AM EST, and those reps are THE ONES! … I’m actually going to Montreal, Canada this friday on a award flight, and I tried to get earlier flight: Day-time -> NO or Additional charge $50 and Night-time -> Sure and zero additional charge plus they pick a good seat for me as well.
Same thing when I call in to book a flight from Boston to Vancouver, day-time say there is no service / direct flight there from Boston by the rule-no stopovers; however, by AA Condition of Carriage, stopover is defined as interruption of more than 4 hours. If any of you pump to this issue, point out the Condition of Carriage definition and argue with those rep. Most of flight to Vancouver from anywhere usually transit in DFW and it’s no more than 3 hours. Night-time gave me a green light on that booking without any argument and additional charge …
what about April/May 2011 travel ?
