American Airlines has announced their latest Buy Miles promotion, where you can earn up to 120,000 bonus American Airlines AAdvantage miles through June 30, 2020. American Airlines constantly offers promotions when purchasing miles, so I’m not the least surprised to see another one being offered.

With this new offer if you wanted to buy 200,000 American AAdvantage miles, meaning you’d receive the 120,000 bonus for a total of 320,000 miles for $5,758.06 including taxes and fees, which comes out to about 1.8 cents per mile, which is a decent price if you’ve looking to add to your AAdvantage balance.

For context, last month offered a similar promotion Earn Up To 100,000 Bonus American AAdvantage Miles, which came out to 1.8 cents. American seems to have some bonus offer each month, so I wouldn’t purchase speculatively given the current conditions of air travel.

Offer Details: 

• For this month only, we increased your miles purchase limit, so now you can buy even more miles. When you buy at least 15,000 miles you’ll earn bonus miles. With the annual limit increase, this month you can buy up to 200,000 miles and receive up to 120,000 bonus miles.
• Use your eligible AAdvantage credit card to earn additional miles for every dollar you spend.
