American Airlines’ AAdvantage program year begins March 1, and to mark the occasion, the airline is offering bonus loyalty points for the entire month. For every March flight taken, members can earn 500 extra Loyalty Points, giving them a strong start toward earning status and rewards. That includes up to 5,000 extra Loyalty Points for the month.

For 2025, AAdvantage provides even more rewards, helping travelers customize their travels, and use their miles in multiple ways. Thought Loyalty Point Reward and status levels are the same for 2025, a reimagined online AAdvantage Acitivity page offers a more intuitive way to track status.

To earn bonus miles in March, AAdvantage members must:

  1. Register for the promotion in their AAdvantage® account
  2. Book an American Airlines flight
  3. Complete travel by March 31, 2025
  4. Earn 500 additional Loyalty Points for each flight — up to 5,000 total

Connections are another opportunity to earn bonus points, as each flight brings the 500 point bonus.

This year, American enhanced AAdvantage with improved perks across the board. Upon reaching 15,000 Loyalty Points, members are eligible for personalized luggage tags. Members who link their accounts to World of Hyatt can enjoy various awards with the program. Not only that, but members can now purchase food and beverages with their miles on eligible flights. That builds on the airline’s 2024 debut of miles-purchasable Wi-Fi, which proved a hit with AAdvantage members. 

Those new rewards build on existing options, like using miles to purchase exclusive experiences and events through AAdvantage Events, or AAdvantage Platinum Pro members using miles to access American’s Flagship First Dining Lounge (on eligible flights). Members can also buy a Flagship Lounge single-day pass or Admiral’s Club One Day Pass for $79 or with 7,900 miles at select locations.

You can book American Airlines new Flagship Suites for less using this clever workaround
American Airlines Flagship Suites

American Airlines’ new Flagship Suites on Boeing 787-9 aircraft promise next-level comfort, privacy, and luxury. Positioned at the front of the plane, the suites use privacy doors, chaise lounge seating, a wireless charging pad, personal storage space, and more. 

Flagship Suite seats went on sale this past Monday, with the first trip on June 5 from Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD) to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Other debut routes to London, Zurich, and Brisbane will follow during the summer. However, the seats aren’t cheap, with fares for the ORD to LAX route running around $6,000. The Points Guy found a clever approach to book a Flagship Suite for less, using points from another oneworld Alliance airline. Here’s how it works.
