BOTTOM LINE: With the recent addition of US Airways, American Airlines/Oneworld is very excited about its strengthened alliance. In fact, it’s so excited that it’s sponsoring a bunch of promotions that encourage you to learn about the new routes, services and destinations. Might as well throw you name in the hat– your odds are significantly better than the lottery.
