AA: SEA-BNA $182ai

AA: SEA-BNA $182ai (O)

Sample:
Sep 22 SEA-DFW-BNA-DFW-SEA $182ai (4572mi~4cpm)

-VALID FOR TRAVEL COMMENCING ON EACH TRIP ON/AFTER 28AUG 12. TRAVEL ON THIS FARE COMPONENT MUST COMMENCE BY MIDNIGHT ON 03OCT 12.
-FOR ONE WAY FARES.

FWIW, it looks like AA matched a UA fare....but I only found 2 dates available for the UA fare (Oct 1-2)....

On the AA fare, you can route via LAX (on AS) for more miles, but I am unsure of AA EQM earning on the AS (O) fare....maybe someone else can confirm....

Should be 100% earning for EQM and RDM for AAdvantage, but I don't know why AA doesn't list O on their site? Is it booked with an AA flight number or AS?

Edit: It shows an AA flight number when I look at it, and all AA marketed flights (those ticketed with an AA number) earn according to AA's earning chart, no matter the operating airline, so this will earn 100% EQMs and RDMs.

^ Thanks, OP! I just booked a mileage run for Sat, Sept 22.

Would have liked to route thru LAX, but can't get a same day turn and fare is significantly higher to return on Sunday.

Seems AA limited availability on the LAX-BNA overnight flight. If departing October 1 from SEA and returning October 2 to SEA, the LAX-BNA overnight is possible. Otherwise I see nothing for itineraries that won't require a hotel stay or some other sort of overnight accommodations. LAX both ways is 3.3 cpm if it works for anyone.

Is the AS option thru LAX still available? Not seeing it. Seeing flights on UA though.

These AA fares are still active....

This routing (SEA(AS)-LAX-BNA-LAX(AS)-SEA) looks to be currently available....but only with an overnight (no same day turns)....

It is also possible to do this: SEA(AS)-LAX-BNA-DFW-SEA on TUE/WED as a same day turn (out in the morning and back @ 12:30am)....

Thanks CokeandTaco. When I searched on matrix, I never saw the AS logo (only the AA one) only to realize that those are AA flights operated by AS, thus explaining why the AS logo never popped up.

Thanks Op. ^

Booked on AA for SEA-LAX-BNA-DFW-SEA turnaround for the Sept. 12 and a one-nighter with the same routing on the 18th. 5032 miles for $182 = 3.6cpm.

This will really help since I got a late start this year. Lowest price I've seen in a long time for 5,000 miles.

Thanks OP for this fare! Lots of miles for little out of pocket.
