AAdvantage Mileage Posting - Miles, Flights, EQD, Post Issues & Discussion
Sometimes miles / segments / flights take longer to post in one's aa.com account.
- AA miles may post before your flight is over
- Partner airlines and other sources may post miles periodically, even weekly.
- AA may run batch processes on weekends including other source miles (occasionally, accounts may appear "zeroed out" at those times).
- Glitches may occur in posting miles.
here - at least 15 days after flying (requires ticket number)
For more efficient documentation of missing miles:
- Retain your boarding passes until all miles, etc. have posted.
- Retain a copy of your e-ticket or receipt (with ticket numbers - ticket numbers do not recycle, PNRs do)
- Be aware of miles earning rules, particularly for one world pa enter flights operated by non-one world airlines

Has anyone else seen miles from flights not posting in the typical 2 days? I had a flight on Monday that still hasn't posted yet...

Yes, same here. I was going to ask the same question. My flight on Monday has not posted, nor has my Wednesday flight (as expected I guess).
Also, I flew RT from BOS-PHL-VCE (Venice Italy) about a month ago. The BOS-PHL, PHL-BOS segments never posted. I'm having to now go through the missing mileage process. At least the PHL-VCE posted but there seems to be some issues with the combining of the programs.
When I called US to get the BOS-PHL mileage, they said they can't see that information any longer and I had to deal with AA. Maybe some glitch between the US and AA systems?

Ok great, glad to hear it isn't just me. Interestingly, the flight doesn't show up any more under "my trips" on the AA site. I will report back when it posts.

I'm doing an EXP challenge and will have the 25KEQPs needed with a trip this weekend from MIA to SJU. I really do not want to have to wait several days for the flights to post. I can almost smell the return to the 8 SWUs, unlimited complimentary space available upgrades (not that I get a lot out of MIA), the EXP desk, etc.

I'm waiting on 3 or 4 flights from the week of account merger for AA operated/US Marketed flights to show up. For some reason the 1 Eagle flight showed up, but none of the mainline AA flights did.
I requested credit online, emailed, and called.
I've had no luck.

missing flights!
I'm missing everything since the March 25th changeover date from US Air. It does appear that they have added SOME of my flights/miles since, but I can't prove it as I cannot find any mileage history anywhere. I feel like I need to request missing miles, but with no history that I can find I'm not sure what flights I am missing.
I actually emailed them tonight basically asking, nicely, "What the ****?"
US Air's site was much more user friendly.

Save Your Boarding Passes
I have 12 legs still unaccounted for..including a single leg of a 4-leg RT, one leg of a 2-leg, RT -- from two weeks ago.
I have done phone calls, mail, and email.
A really wonderful CSR told me that it is (obviously) a huge problem which they will work through. He also told me that the Boarding Passes were key if some flights just don't make the balance.
I figure I have 7 months to get it squared away.
PS - I really do miss everything posting within 48 hours.

Still missing two segments from nearly three weeks ago. If this were still the pmUS operation I'd just punch in the ticket numbers and probably have it post within minutes. But it's AA... guess I'll have to hop on the phone tomorrow.
