AAdvantage Membership Period |
|
|
|
Your elite qualifying activity (points, miles and segments) from January 1 to December 31 is used to determine your AAdvantage membership level.
The membership year, which is the period in which your elite benefits are available, runs from March 1 through the last day of February of the
following year. Since you begin receiving elite benefits immediately upon qualification, the beginning of your membership year is the day
you qualify for your elite level. On March 1, every elite member's year starts over and the mileage counters that are used to determine the number
of 500-mile upgrades earned by AAdvantage Gold and AAdvantage Platinum members
for every 10,000 qualifying miles flown are set to zero.
Whenever you meet the standard requirements for each elite level, you will retain that status through the end of the calendar year in which you
qualified plus the next membership year. For example, if you earn 25,000 elite-qualifying points or miles on July 31, 2008 your AAdvantage Gold
membership will continue through February 28, 2010.
