Unlock Global Adventures: Your Guide to AA Mileage Partners

American Airlines AAdvantage® miles are your passport to explore the world. While flying directly with American Airlines opens up a vast network of destinations, understanding and utilizing Aa Mileage Partners can dramatically expand your travel horizons. Imagine using your miles to not only fly across America but also to reach exotic locales in Asia, explore the cultural richness of Europe, or relax on pristine beaches in the South Pacific. This is the power of American Airlines’ extensive network of partner airlines.

By strategically using your AAdvantage miles with AA mileage partners, you gain access to nearly 1,000 destinations in over 170 countries and territories, far beyond the 350+ destinations offered solely by American Airlines. This guide will provide a comprehensive overview of these valuable partnerships, detailing the airlines you can fly with, how to maximize your redemptions, and essential tips for booking your dream award travel.

Diving into American Airlines Partner Airlines

American Airlines boasts a diverse portfolio of AA mileage partners, categorized into two main groups: Oneworld Alliance members and non-alliance partners. While their official partner page might list a larger number, it’s crucial to know which partnerships currently allow for AAdvantage mile redemptions. Some listed airlines, such as IndiGo, and previously JetBlue and Silver Airways (whose partnerships have ended), are not currently bookable with miles. However, American Airlines is actively working to expand redemption options, including for Aer Lingus and JetSMART.

Currently, you can leverage your AAdvantage miles with the following AA mileage partners:

Oneworld Alliance Members:

Boosting Your AAdvantage Mileage Balance

Before you can explore the world with AA mileage partners, you need to accumulate AAdvantage miles. Fortunately, there are numerous avenues to earn miles, beyond just flying with American Airlines and its partners.

Here are some popular methods to increase your AAdvantage mileage balance:

Flights: Naturally, flying with American Airlines and its AA mileage partners is a primary way to earn miles. Ensure you include your AAdvantage number when booking.
Hotel Bookings: Booking hotels through the American Airlines portal or partnering hotel programs can earn you miles.
Car Rentals: Similar to hotels, utilize the AA car rental partners to accrue miles on your rentals.
Cruises: Yes, you can even earn AAdvantage miles by booking cruises through American Airlines Cruises.
Bask Bank: Consider options like Bask Bank, which allows you to earn AAdvantage miles for simply saving money.
AAdvantage Dining: Enroll in the AAdvantage Dining program and earn miles for dining at participating restaurants.
SimplyMiles: This program offers miles for shopping at select online retailers.
Buy Miles: When needed, you can purchase American Airlines miles directly, especially during promotional periods where bonuses are offered.

It’s important to note that American Airlines is not a direct transfer partner with major bank rewards programs like Chase Ultimate Rewards or Capital One Miles. However, there are a few exceptions:

Marriott Bonvoy: You can transfer Marriott Bonvoy points to AAdvantage miles at a 3:1 ratio. This can be valuable, especially when Marriott offers transfer bonuses.
Bilt Rewards: While previously a transfer partner, the Bilt Rewards partnership with American Airlines concluded in June 2024.
Hyatt (World of Hyatt): Hyatt points can be transferred to AAdvantage, though the ratio is less favorable at 2.5 Hyatt points to 1 AAdvantage mile (or 5,000 Hyatt points to 2,000 AA miles).
RBC (Avion Rewards): For Canadian travelers, RBC Avion Rewards points can be transferred to AAdvantage miles at a 10:7 ratio, exclusively for Avion cardholders.

Finally, American Airlines credit cards are a powerful tool for consistent mileage earning. Co-branded cards offer bonus miles on everyday spending and often come with attractive welcome bonuses. Here are a few popular options:

The AAdvantage Aviator Red World Elite Mastercard, a popular credit card for earning AA mileage partner rewards.

Understanding Award Pricing for AA Flights and Partners

Redeeming AAdvantage miles offers two primary pricing structures: one for flights solely operated by American Airlines and another for flights involving AA mileage partners.

For American Airlines operated flights within North America, award pricing is dynamic and can vary significantly. While American publishes an award chart with estimated starting rates, these are merely guidelines, and actual redemption costs can fluctuate.

However, when it comes to flights with AA mileage partners, American Airlines maintains region-based partner award charts with fixed redemption rates (with a notable exception for Fiji Airways). This predictability makes planning award travel with partners significantly easier.

Navigating the American Airlines Partner Award Charts

American Airlines partner award charts are organized by the region of origin and destination, outlining the fixed mileage costs for flights operated by Oneworld and other AA mileage partners. Unlike the dynamic pricing for American Airlines flights, these charts offer consistent redemption rates, simplifying your award travel calculations.

Below is the partner award chart for one-way itineraries originating in the contiguous 48 U.S. states or Canada. For award charts originating from other regions, refer to the official partner award chart page.

It’s crucial to review the additional qualifiers and conditions on American Airlines’ website associated with these charts, including routing rules and airline-specific stipulations, before finalizing your travel plans.

Exploring Oneworld Partner Flights with AA Miles

Redeeming AAdvantage miles for flights operated by Oneworld member airlines, your core group of AA mileage partners, unlocks a vast global network. As long as your itinerary includes at least one segment operated by a partner airline, the fixed rates of the AAdvantage partner award chart apply. Let’s explore some key Oneworld partners:

Alaska Airlines: Your West Coast Gateway

Alaska Airlines, based on the U.S. West Coast, provides access to over 125 destinations across North and Central America. Their partnership with American Airlines, strengthened by Alaska joining the Oneworld alliance in 2021, makes them a valuable AA mileage partner.

You can seamlessly redeem AAdvantage miles for award travel on Alaska Airlines, including itineraries combining flights with other Oneworld and partner airlines. Furthermore, American Airlines elite status holders enjoy select benefits when flying Alaska Airlines.

Award pricing adheres to the AAdvantage partner award chart. For example, a one-way economy award within the contiguous 48 U.S. states or Canada on Alaska Airlines costs just 12,500 miles. A flight from Fort Lauderdale (FLL) to Seattle (SEA) exemplifies this redemption.

British Airways: Connecting to Europe and Beyond

British Airways, a global giant, serves nearly 200 destinations in over 70 countries from its London hubs. Redeeming American miles for travel on British Airways, another key AA mileage partner, opens doors to Europe and beyond.

When searching for award flights between the U.S. and Europe, British Airways often appears as a prominent option. Awards involving British Airways segments are priced according to the AAdvantage partner award chart. A one-way itinerary between the contiguous 48 U.S. states and Europe will cost:

Economy: 30,000 miles (22,500 miles off-peak)
Premium Economy: 40,000 miles
Business Class: 57,500 miles
First Class: 85,000 miles

Within the United Kingdom, you can also redeem just 10,000 miles for a one-way economy award or 15,000 miles for business/first class.

However, flights operated by British Airways are known for incurring significant taxes and fees, especially on long-haul routes due to the UK’s Air Passenger Duty. Premium cabin awards can sometimes carry surcharges exceeding $600 each way. For transatlantic travel on British Airways, consider comparing redemption costs with Cathay Pacific Asia Miles to potentially mitigate these high surcharges.

Cathay Pacific: Your Asian Gateway for Premium Travel

Cathay Pacific, based in Hong Kong, serves over 80 destinations in nearly 30 countries across Asia and beyond. As a premier AA mileage partner, Cathay Pacific offers comfortable and strategic routes throughout Asia and to select US cities.

From key US gateways, you can efficiently reach numerous popular Asian destinations with a single connection in Hong Kong (HKG) on Cathay Pacific.

Hong Kong falls within American Airlines’ “Asia Region 2” for award chart purposes. One-way award flights operated by Cathay Pacific from Hong Kong and most of Asia (excluding Japan and Korea, which are in “Asia Region 1”) adhere to the following AAdvantage partner award chart:

Finnair: Exploring Scandinavia and Northern Europe

Finnair, Finland’s flag carrier, connects to 100 destinations in 35 countries from its Helsinki hub. While its US network is limited, Finnair, as an AA mileage partner, is ideal for exploring Scandinavia and Northern Europe.

The AAdvantage partner award chart for flights originating in Europe applies to Finnair itineraries.

Intra-Finland flights are also exceptionally affordable with miles, at just 10,000 miles one-way in economy. Finnair facilitates travel throughout Scandinavia using American Airlines miles.

Iberia: Direct Flights to Spain and Iberian Peninsula

Iberia, based in Madrid, serves 137 destinations in 46 countries. This AA mileage partner offers direct routes to Spain from several US airports, potentially avoiding the high surcharges associated with British Airways.

Redeeming American miles on Iberia (including flights marketed by Iberia but operated by Iberia Express) and other partners follows the standard AAdvantage partner award chart. Intra-Spain flights are also available for just 10,000 miles in economy or 15,000 miles in business/first class one-way.

However, for direct flights between North America and Spain, consider using Iberia Avios instead of American Airlines miles. On off-peak dates, Iberia charges as low as 17,000 Avios in economy or 34,000 Avios in business class for one-way flights from the East Coast to Spain.

Japan Airlines: Exceptional Service to Asia and Beyond

Japan Airlines (JAL), renowned for its service, serves over 190 destinations in more than 64 countries from its Japanese hubs. As a top-tier AA mileage partner, JAL provides premium travel experiences to Asia and beyond.

Redeeming American miles for award travel on Japan Airlines, including itineraries with other partners, is straightforward. Japan is classified as “Asia Region 1” on the AAdvantage partner award chart. Redemptions between the contiguous 48 U.S. states and Japan start at 35,000 miles in economy and range up to 80,000 miles for first-class awards.

Connecting through Japan to “Asia Region 2” destinations adds a relatively small mileage surcharge: 2,500 more miles in economy, 10,000 more in business class, or 30,000 more in first class. Premium economy connections to “Asia Region 2” incur no additional mileage cost.

Intra-Japan flights are also a great value, costing just 7,500 miles one-way in economy and 15,000 miles one-way in business/first class.

JAL also serves smaller US airports, so consider checking for award space at airports like San Diego (SAN) when planning your award travel.

Malaysia Airlines: Southeast Asian Connections

Malaysia Airlines connects over 55 destinations across Asia, Europe, the Pacific, and the Middle East from its Kuala Lumpur hub. While not serving North America directly, this AA mileage partner is valuable for intra-Asia and Europe-Asia travel.

You can redeem American miles for awards on Malaysia Airlines, including itineraries with other partners. Kuala Lumpur, like Hong Kong, is in “Asia Region 2” for the AAdvantage partner award chart. Award space on Malaysia Airlines can be less readily available, requiring patience in your search.

Qantas: Exploring Australia and the South Pacific

Qantas, Australia’s flag carrier, serves over 95 destinations in 25 countries from its Australian hubs. As a key AA mileage partner, Qantas is your gateway to Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific.

Australia falls within the “South Pacific” region on the AAdvantage partner award chart. One-way awards between the contiguous 48 U.S. states and the South Pacific (including Australia) require:

Economy: 40,000 miles
Premium Economy: 65,000 miles
Business/First Class: 80,000 miles

Qatar Airways: Luxury and Global Reach via Doha

Qatar Airways, serving over 175 destinations across six continents from Doha, is a favorite AA mileage partner for many. Its renowned Qsuite business class and extensive network make it a prime choice for aspirational award travel.

For 70,000 American miles each way, the AAdvantage partner award chart allows travel between the contiguous 48 U.S. states and the Middle East or Indian Subcontinent in Qatar’s acclaimed Qsuite. For an additional 5,000 miles, you can reach many destinations within Africa with just one stop in Doha.

However, Qatar Airways has significantly restricted business class award availability to American Airlines. While awards may be bookable through other partners like JetBlue, finding Qatar Airways business class awards bookable with AAdvantage miles can be challenging.

Royal Air Maroc: Exploring Morocco and North Africa

Royal Air Maroc (RAM) serves over 80 destinations from its Moroccan hubs. As an AA mileage partner, RAM is ideal for exploring Morocco and accessing destinations in North and West Africa.

The AAdvantage partner award chart places Morocco within the “Europe” region. Flights between the contiguous 48 U.S. states (or Canada) and the “Europe” region, including Morocco, cost:

Economy: 30,000 miles (22,500 miles off-peak)
Premium Economy: 40,000 miles
Business Class: 57,500 miles

Connecting through Casablanca (CMN) to destinations in the Middle East, Africa, or the Indian Subcontinent requires significantly more miles. However, intra-Morocco flights are available for just 5,000 American miles in economy and 10,000 miles in business class.

Royal Jordanian Airlines: Middle Eastern Connectivity

Royal Jordanian Airlines (RJ) serves 45 destinations in nearly 30 countries from its Amman hub. Similar to Qatar Airways, Royal Jordanian provides a Middle Eastern connection point for Oneworld travelers and is a valuable AA mileage partner.

While not offering enclosed suites like Qatar’s Qsuite, Royal Jordanian generally has better award availability and offers transatlantic routes from fewer US cities.

Amman falls within the AAdvantage partner award chart “Middle East” region. Transatlantic one-way flights between the contiguous 48 U.S. states and the Middle East cost: 40,000 AAdvantage miles in economy, 62,500 miles in premium economy, 70,000 miles in business/first, and 115,000 miles in first class.

Exploring Non-Alliance Partner Flights with AA Miles

Beyond the Oneworld alliance, American Airlines partners with several independent airlines, further expanding your options for using AA mileage partners. While redemptions on some partners like Aer Lingus, IndiGo, and JetSMART are not currently available, several others offer valuable opportunities. Let’s examine some key non-alliance partners:

Air Tahiti Nui: Paradise in the South Pacific

Air Tahiti Nui (TN), with a small fleet, serves five destinations from Papeete, French Polynesia: Auckland, Los Angeles, Paris (via Los Angeles), Seattle, and Tokyo. This unique AA mileage partner offers direct access to the idyllic islands of Tahiti and French Polynesia.

Notably, business class flights to Paris via Los Angeles cost only 5,000 miles more than flying to Los Angeles alone, despite the significantly longer journey.

Economy travel within the South Pacific is also remarkably affordable at just 15,000 miles one-way, enabling island hopping across French Polynesia, New Zealand, Australia, and other South Pacific destinations.

Cape Air: Regional US Travel

Cape Air, a large independent regional airline in the US, might seem unexpected as an AA mileage partner. However, it provides access to unique destinations within the Northeastern US and beyond.

Based on the AAdvantage partner page, redemptions are limited to the eight routes shown below, each priced at 12,500 miles. Award availability can be limited, often requiring phone booking.

Given that these short flights are often bookable for under $100, consider comparing cash prices before redeeming AAdvantage miles for Cape Air flights.

China Southern Airlines: Access to Mainland China

China Southern Airlines (CZ), the largest airline in China, serves over 200 destinations in 47 countries from its Guangzhou and Beijing hubs. As an AA mileage partner, China Southern expands your reach into mainland China.

Redeeming American miles for travel on China Southern, including itineraries with other partners, is possible but requires phone booking through AAdvantage Reservations.

China Southern’s hubs in Guangzhou and Beijing are located in “Asia Region 2” for the AAdvantage partner award chart.

Etihad Airways: Luxury to the Middle East and Beyond

Etihad Airways (EY) serves over 75 destinations across Asia, Australia, Europe, the Middle East, and North America from its Abu Dhabi hub. This premium AA mileage partner offers luxurious travel options, including its famed A380 First Class Apartment.

Abu Dhabi is classified within the “Middle East” region on the AAdvantage partner award chart, serving as a major connecting point. Etihad’s hub offers efficient connections to numerous long-haul destinations.

However, award space on Etihad booked through American Airlines is often limited to within 30 days of departure. Close-in booking is often necessary to secure Etihad awards via AAdvantage.

One aspirational redemption is Etihad’s A380 First Class Apartment, offering an unparalleled in-flight experience, including onboard showers.

Fiji Airways: Island Hopping in Fiji and the South Pacific

Fiji Airways (FJ), operating from its Nadi hub, connects major global cities with various Pacific Island countries. Fiji Airways is set to officially join the Oneworld alliance in 2025, further solidifying its position as a valuable AA mileage partner.

Nadi, like Papeete, is located in the “South Pacific” region on the AAdvantage partner award chart. However, Fiji Airways awards feature dynamic pricing, meaning award chart minimums may not always be available.

Despite dynamic pricing, Fiji Airways is excellent for exploring Fiji and the broader South Pacific region. Intra-Fiji flights start at just 5,000 American miles in economy, and flights within the South Pacific region start at 15,000 miles in economy. Finding the most affordable rates may require some searching.

This Brazilian low-cost carrier serves over 80 destinations across 11 countries, including flights between Brazil and Florida (Miami and Orlando), which are particularly relevant for US-based travelers.

Intra-Brazil award flights are also very economical, costing 7,500 miles in economy and 17,500 miles in business/first class one-way. Given that economy flights within Brazil can often be found for under $50, always compare cash rates before redeeming miles.

Hawaiian Airlines: Island Getaways and Pacific Connections

Hawaiian Airlines (HA) operates numerous flights between the continental US and Hawaii. Redeeming American Airlines miles for these flights, as well as Hawaiian’s routes to Japan, South Korea, and Tahiti, is now possible, making them a valuable AA mileage partner for Pacific travel.

Final Thoughts: Unlock the World with AA Mileage Partners

American Airlines miles, when strategically used with AA mileage partners, become incredibly versatile, enabling you to reach almost any destination imaginable. The vast majority of AAdvantage award bookings, including those involving partner airlines, can be conveniently made online, eliminating the need to contact an agent.

For bookings involving partners not available online, contacting American Airlines Reservations is necessary. In such cases, if online booking is not possible, request a waiver for any applicable phone booking fees.

By understanding and leveraging the power of AA mileage partners, you can maximize the value of your AAdvantage miles and turn your travel dreams into reality.
