I had benefits on three carriers at my precious regional. Then I got hired at AA.
AA flight benefits are the same as AA WO regional benefits, and I can say that the AA benefits are way better. The better priority is so much better than flying as AAC/S3C/SA5X.
There was the one time when the AA flight cancelled and I ZED my whole family on United coming out of Europe, and having the three benefits would have saved me a little bit of money. But the majority of the time, higher priority I have as a mainline employee is better for me.

You’re doing it wrong. I did a two week trip in Europe in October through Jordan and Switzerland. All with an international carry on. Just plan to do laundry. That being said, you can check luggage. It will always go through with or without you. So while you may not make a flight, your luggage will. That’s only good when you’re going home.

That being said, checking bags as a nonrev is a horrible idea. Even if you gate-check the bag after getting a seat, they might pull you off and leave your bag on if it’s a domestic flight.

international bags don’t get on a plane unless the passenger is confirmed on board.

Word I didn't understand what you meant the first time but now it's clear.
