AA Discounting Miles For Purchase Again, Though Not A Great Price

ByEdward Pizzarello

I generally don’t find purchasing miles to be lucrative.  US Airways used to have a pretty good price, but they’ve raised prices since then to make it not quite such a good value.

American Airlines AAdvantage is offering a discount on purchased miles again until the end of October.

At the bottom of the range the price is not great.  If you buy 6,000 miles, the price comes out to 2.76 cents per point, which kinda sucks.  At exactly 36,000 points, the price drops down to 2.37 cents which isn’t horrible.

They’ve offered miles for less earlier this year, so I don’t consider this a great deal, but it is a shade better right at 36,000 miles than it has been in the past.

My goal in life is to fill my family’s passports with stamps, creating buckets of memories along the way. You’ll find me writing about realistic ways for normal people to travel the world, whether you’re on a budget or enjoy luxury. I also enjoy taking us on the occasional detour to explore the inner workings of the travel industry.
