Good point! I am retiring from AA in a few months and I don't want fuss! I might even skip my last flight. But that being said you should go on his last trip if he is cool with it. You could just buy a ticket. You could call the CP and I bet he would have ideas and would help you out as needed. I have seen some smaller city's give the water cannon.
