I have no idea since I have never used a consolidator. I just got an e-mail from AA Vacations today offering bonus miles, and you do get full AA EQMs, so there is 1+ for using them.


No idea on the additional terms and conditions either, since I did not read them. The info I learned below was provided during the calls to their 800 number. Very helpful agents, BTW.

The AA Vacations website is a bit bulky, but I suppose you could price it out on their site (no held bookings possible), and compare it elsewhere.
