American Airlines Delays Points Earning Changes
American Airlines said recently that it would start requiring customers to buy tickets directly from the airline or its partner carriers if they want to earn points in its AAdvantage loyalty program.
American is limiting the way customers earn AAdvantage® miles and Loyalty Points on flights, depending on where they book. Customers will earn miles and Loyalty Points on flights when they:
- Book directly with American and eligible partner airlines.
- Book travel anywhere as an AAdvantage Business™ member or contracted corporate traveler.
- Book through preferred travel agencies. American will probably share a list of eligible preferred agencies in late June or early July.
- Basic Economy fare tickets will only earn when booked directly with American and eligible partner airlines.
These change was supposed to go into effect on May 1, 2024. However, the Fort Worth, Texas-based carrier is delaying it until July 11, 2024.
