Is there any advantage to paying off A2S prior to final payment (like 6 months in advance)? We have chosen our seats on Air France and American (paid for on AF). By paying off this far in advance, would we be considered "ticketed" and more guaranteed of having the seats we chose (barring the fact that planes can change and all that?
If we pay off A2S, do they just hold on to that money or do they go ahead and pay off the airlines for our tickets? If they just hold on to the funds then I guess it doesn't really gain us anything, right?
