I, for one, never expected to see this flight happen in the first place.
If Midway couldn't do it with 73Gs and their cost structure, no way AA could do it with larger a/c, and much higher costs. Keep routing them through DFW, filling planes, and keeping the ASMs down!
Notice that RDU-SJU has not yet been cancelled. This one, I believe, we will see through to fruition.

I am not surprised either. They talk about how they are relocating capacity to all these leisure routes, and then, among them are Raleigh-San Jose and Miami-Charlotte, two big business routes. MIA-CLT (which US is adding a 6th daily following AA's announcement) still makes perfect sense, because it also has leisure traffic and is meant to steal some Charlotte-Caribbean traffic from USAirways, but RDU-SJC is pure business. RDU-LAX, however, I think could work out for them.
