When it comes to the loyalty programs of the “big three” carriers in the United States, I tend to think that American AAdvantage offers the most value when redeeming miles for international premium cabin travel, both in terms of partner airlines and redemption rates.
There are plenty of markets where American AAdvantage has the best pricing for award travel among oneworld programs, while I’d argue the same can’t be said for Delta SkyMiles for SkyTeam awards, and United MileagePlus for Star Alliance awards.
In this post, I’d like to go over the basics of redeeming American Airlines AAdvantage miles. I’ll cover all the details of redemption logistics, and will also share my favorite sweet spot awards.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
