AA Didn't charge me for an Award Flight

My brother and I recently booked and flew 2 RT CX F Award tickets using AA miles from my account. AA only withdrew miles for 3 one-way tickets, they didn't charge me for the 4th ticket. From what I can tell, it looks like AA must've made an error in redepositing the miles when I made changes to the destination of the award tickets. I'm not complaining of course...just curious. Has anyone ever had this happen?

The old BMI forum on FT has many stories of this type of thing. I've seen it happen with Lifemiles. But haven't heard of it with AA myself.

Used to happen with US. Frequently. Not necessarily free, but undercharged, or miles deducted only for one person on a 2 person award PNR. Haven't had that kind of "mistake" in my favor with anyone for some time though.
