Exclamation 1,000 AA miles bonus/spend $50 by 7/31/08 (Elite / online members)

http://aa.rewardsnetwork.com/bonus.htm?id=A080&detail=

SPEND $50 OR MORE -- GET 1,000 BONUS MILES.

NOT SURE IF IT IS LIMITED ONLY TO ELITE MEMBERS OF THE AADVANTAGE DINING PROGRAM.

COPY of the original NJUPINTHEAIR post in the Please Share iDine Bonuses sticky thread to head up this thread discussing the bonus (as opposed to the announcement in the sticky thread.)

1,000 AA miles bonus/spend $50 by 7/31/08 (Elites only)

Rules state eligible dines after registering, but they waited 10 days (out of 31) to post the offer?

That bothered me too, as I had eligible dines but knew nothing of the bonus until my spouse received an e-mail announcing it today.

Definitely not limited to elite members.

I don't know why why made this such a short promotion. The email isn't late -I checked for any promotions a few days ago and it didn't exist then.

Frustrating, but limited to one bonus per member so we still have 3 weeks to get in a single dine over $50.

T&C say online and VIP members. Ditto on the promo start date; I looked yesterday and didn't see it.

If all else fails, it should be easy enough to buy a $50 gift card at one's favorite participating restaurant within the next 3 weeks.

1,000 AA miles bonus/spend $50 by 7/31/08 (Elites only)

I'm kind of disappointed with the one-time / 1,000 miles and short time period both of announcement and longevity, but beggars... but here are the terms and conditions as far as AAdvantage go:

It's as easy as 1-2-3.

1. Register online

2. Dine at any participating restaurant by July 31, 2008* and spend $50 or more. Search for restaurants across the U.S. and Canada.

3. Earn 1,000 American Airlines AAdvantage® bonus miles on top of the miles you normally earn.

Let's Do Dinner Bonus Terms and Conditions

*Qualified dine is a dine of $50 or more (including tax or tip) at a participating restaurant, bar or club after registering for the Let's Do Dinner Bonus and by July 31, 2008 during a valid benefit period and which is paid for with a credit or debit card registered in the AAdvantage DiningSM program. Advance online registration required to participate in the Let's Do Dinner Bonus. Limit one Let's Do Dinner Bonus per member.

NOTE: This bonus is open to Online and VIP Members only who are members of the AAdvantage DiningSM program as of 7/1/08. So make sure you have elected to receive emails from the AAdvantage DiningSM program and that you have provided us with a valid, deliverable email address by logging in and visiting My Account Center before you register for this bonus.

Darn, I did not read carefully enough for the limitation of only one bonus per member.

As for the start date, the T&C state as of July 1, 2008, so that was the reasonable date to think was it's start date.

Glad others reported that it was not up on the RN website prior to yesterday.

By the way, my spouse received the e-mail announcing this promotion and I have gone back and retrieved it and found that it was NOT from RN AAdvantage dining but rather, it came directly from American Airlines.

Strangely, I have not received notice from American. Has anyone else gotten this e-mail?

Can these be combined? I don't see how, but here is the offer I received (non- RN AAdvantage Dining member):

Earn 1,500 bonus miles during the
July Sign & Dine Bonus Bonanza!


Membership is free in this easy-to-use dining program where delicious meals are served with up to 5 American Airlines AAdvantage® bonus miles per dollar spent (tax and tip included!). There are thousands of participating restaurants nationwide so its easy to participate.

A $120 dinner earns you up to 600 AAdvantage miles!

A $65 brunch earns you up to 325 miles!

Plus, during the July Sign & Dine Bonus Bonanza, earn 1,500 bonus miles when you enroll online and dine at any participating restaurant by July 31, 2008! That’s 1,500 bonus miles on top of the miles you already earn as an AAdvantage Dining member.

I don't really think it's "targeted", but certainly not all members qualify for it. From the T&C:

NOTE: This bonus is open to Online and VIP Members only who are members of the AAdvantage DiningSM program as of 7/1/08. So make sure you have elected to receive emails from the AAdvantage DiningSM program and that you have provided us with a valid, deliverable email address by logging in and visiting My Account Center before you register for this bonus.

It's now listed under Bonuses on the AA RN site... have her log in and see if she can see it.

Not as of July 11.... for the $50->1000 miles promotion, you had to be a qualifying member as of July 1, per the T&C.

Probably that's why the $50 promotion came out "late" on July 10... to make sure people couldn't sign up extra accts and double dip the 1500 and 1000.
