An AAdvantage Pass™ package allows members to elevate their travel experience with American. Each package comes with bonus miles, Loyalty Points and AAdvantage® status to make your journey more rewarding.

All miles from an AAdvantage Pass™ package will be bonus miles. Bonus miles do not earn Loyalty Points. However, each package also includes Loyalty Points to help accelerate your status progress and unlock Loyalty Point Rewards.

Yes, Loyalty Points from the AAdvantage Pass™ package will count toward the current status qualification year.

Once purchased, packages are non-refundable and can’t be exchanged.

No, you won't be able to buy a package for the same or lower status than your current one. Instant Status Pass™ promotions are non-refundable, so you must wait until it expires to buy a package for the same status.

For example, if you have AAdvantage Gold® status through an Instant Status Pass™ promotion, then you'll need to wait until it expires to buy an AAdvantage Gold Pass™ package.

No, you can't buy two packages for the same status. Your current package must expire before you can buy another one.

For example, if you’ve already bought an AAdvantage Gold Pass™ package, you’ll need to wait until it expires to buy another one for the same status.

If your company has a corporate partnership with American, contact your Account Manager to learn more about available AAdvantage Pass™ packages.

*Loyalty Points and status from a single package must be assigned together to the same registered traveler. Travel Managers won’t be able to assign them separately.
