I cannot even think of the last time I was targeted for an American Airlines promotion. It does makes sense though as I’m a Platinum member who has not taken one paid flight with the carrier this year. Here’s the offer:
- Double Award Points on all First and Business Class Tickets through July 8th
- Offer only good for members who received the email directly from American and register by 11:59pm CDT on April 10, 2018 AND prior to travel
*AAdvantage® bonus mileage offer is only valid for travel on American Airlines marketed flights (operated by American Airlines, British Airways, Iberia, Finnair or Japan Airlines). Flights marketed and/or operated by other codeshare partners are not eligible for this promotion. Offer applies to purchased published fares in First Class booked in F or A; Business Class fares booked in J, R, D or I. Double miles will be calculated at 100% of the base award miles earned for the eligible flights (excludes award miles earned from elite bonuses). Bonus miles do not count toward elite status qualification or AAdvantage® Million MilerSM status. Travel flown prior to registration for this promotion is not eligible for the bonus mile offer.

Even as a Platinum Pro with American I was targeted for this offer!
Signs of an expected weakening demand? Countering competitive forces?
My husband (Platinum) got it but his offer requires a minimum of 4 flights (F/J) to qualify. I did not get it (EP, but little activity this year so far).
Same thing but requires 4 flights. I currently let my status lapse and fly whoever has the best price in First.
Purchase and fly on First or Business class tickets on at least 4 qualifying flights*
After 4 flights, you’ll earn double award miles on those flights and any others* through July 8, 2018
And don’t forget: You earn Elite Qualifying Miles (EQMs) at a higher rate when you purchase travel in First or Business — up to 3 EQMs per mile — getting you to elite status even faster.
I was EP for 5 years and went down to Plat this year with 1 paid segment so far and I got it. I’ve never gotten a promo offer before either.
