Introducing the new Elite Rewards

Flying has never been so rewarding

We want to thank you for flying the extra mile. That's why we've designed a new Elite Rewards program, where rewards are now attainable all year long. You can choose one reward at each of four distinct milestones, as soon as you reach them. With up to 20 rewards to choose from, you'll find countless reasons to continue flying the
new American.

Enjoy more rewards, more often. Register for Elite Rewards and meet the thresholds for elite-qualifying miles, points or segments. We already offer our customers three elite status tiers – Executive Platinum, Platinum and Gold, each with their own benefits. Now, we've created 4 new milestones that offer rewards to complement existing elite status benefits. You are eligible to select one reward from each milestone for which you qualify.

Important things to know about Elite Rewards:

If you have already reached a milestone, look for our notification email alerting you to choose a reward. Please note, it can take up to two weeks for your miles, points or segments activity to be updated in the system. Reward selection will continue through February 28, 2014.

You must register by December 31, 2013, and choose your reward by February 28, 2014.

You are welcome to one reward within each milestone for which you qualify.

We will email you as you achieve each new milestone, notifying you to choose your reward.

Our Elite Rewards program is cumulative, so if you've reached Milestone 2, you've also reached Milestone 1. The program is also retroactive, so as long as you register by December 31, 2013, you qualify for rewards since January 1, 2013.
