American Airlines has launched a new offer, where American AAdvantage members can earn up to 50,000 bonus American AAdvantage miles on flights to Australia or New Zealand from travel between February 1, 2017 – May 31, 2017. American’s was running a similar promotion, where you could earn up to 30,000 AAdvantage miles, so it’s nice to see this new offer is increased.

Registration Dates:
October 21, 2016 and December 31, 2016

Travel Dates:
February 1, 2017 – May 31, 2017

Promotion Code:

Terms and Conditions: AAdvantage® bonus mileage offer is only valid for travel on American Airlines marketed nonstop flights (operated by either American Airlines or Qantas) between the U.S. and Australia or New Zealand, February 1, 2017, through May 31, 2017. Flights marketed and or operated by other codeshare partners are not eligible for this promotion.

Offer applies only to AAdvantage® members who purchase eligible published-fare tickets and register between October 21, 2016 and December 31, 2016. Tickets purchased before October 21, 2016 or after December 31, 2016 are not eligible to earn bonus miles for this promotion.

Bottom Line

Be sure to register for this offer if you have upcoming travel plans to New Zealand. American has offered similar type promotions in the past, so I’m not all that surprised by this, but it’s a good offer nonetheless.
