The AAdvantage program gives you lots of opportunities to earn extra bonus points through special offers announced on their Airlines Offers page.These are normally created to promote a new or quiet route. I don't recommend travelling just to get these bonus points, but if you're going to say Shanghai why not go for the bonus as well?The important thing to remember for these bonuses is that you

Through the one world alliance Aadvantage members can both earn and use miles on other airlines. For example I live in Europe and can use the following airlines with pretty much the same benefits as if I was flying on American:British AirwaysIberiaFinnAirAerLingusThis means that I can earn and use miles on these airlines. I just have to remember to give them my AAdvantage number when I buy or

They finally posted the miles from my return flights and I have become platinum. Complete with 100% bonus for my last flight and all.I am very happy that this became a successfull double challenge as I received a few extra miles in the way of the 25% Gold bonus for the flights I made between reaching gold and platinum, which works out to 2195 miles extra. I was also able to use some of the gold

I'm now back from a little vacation and have flown at least 11000 base miles. They are taking a while to show up at the moment, but will report back when I have the full miles of the trip. So I had originally signed up for the Gold Challenge and then called a week or so later to change it to the platinum challenge.Funny thing happened though. The made me gold through the challenge anyway. So they

The following are the rules related to my last post on Gold and Platinum challenges. On a little side note, I think AA should be commended on the friendly language in the email. It's great:**** CALL 800-421-0600 OR SEND US EMAIL VIA AA.COM ****Thanks for speaking with me about your AAdvantage account. We have put you on a Challenge for AAdvantage Platinum membership.

Did you know that American Airlines have two secret programs called Gold and Platinum Challenge? You won't find any information about this on their web site, but it is one of those great insider secrets shared around between frequent flier afficionados on their various web forums.Basically the idea is that AA want to reward you if you think you are going to be flying alot in a short period.

The past year I have not been travelling with American Airlines at all, so for the first time in years I am back to regular membership. My goal is to become a Gold member before New Year and at least Platinum by year end.I will be able to reach Gold status on just a one way transatlantic trip from CPH-MIA through an undocumented trick that I will describe later. In the new year I should be doing

Frequent flyer miles are mostly about getting free trips for most people. However people who fly more than once or twice a year know that the real benefits are in the elite status programs.What are these? Well they are special programs with real benefits for people who fly a lot. American Airlines have 3 levels of these programs:GoldPlatinumExecutive PlatinumI will describe these later on in more

I have been a happy AAdvantage user for over 10 years now. I have my years when I fly a lot and some where I don't. AAdvantage is constantly rated one of the top programs and while American Airlines itself has hollowed out it's quality the AAdvantage program means that I keep coming back to American Airlines.Over the years I have learnt a few things about the program. Various ways to maximize
