Obviously by the description this is more retaliation to Orbitz and Expedia.
So, who else got targeted?!
Dear denCSA,
We have an exclusive offer for you — something else you won't get on Orbitz or Expedia! From now through January 31, 2011, when you purchase your ticket on AA.com for travel through March 31, 2011, you will earn:
DOUBLE AAdvantage® miles!
You're already pre-registered for this promotion. Simply go to AA.com and start booking today.
And while our flights are no longer available on Orbitz®, Expedia® or its subsidiary, Hotwire®, you can still compare flights or fares online by visiting other travel sites such as Kayak.com® or Priceline.com® for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
Terms and Conditions:
Offer is valid only for targeted AAdvantage members. AAdvantage® members can earn double AAdvantage miles per eligible ticket booked and purchased on AA.com between January 19, 2011, and January 31, 2011. This AAdvantage® bonus mile offer is valid for travel on American Airlines, American Eagle® or AmericanConnection® carriers (including travel on codeshare flights booked under the AA flight number) between January 19, 2011, and March 31, 2011. Tickets booked on AA.com, but not purchased on AA.com will not be eligible to earn this bonus. Reservations booked prior to January 19, 2011, will not be eligible for this promotion. AAdvantage award bookings, American Airlines Cruises, last-minute packages (i.e., packages of the type purchased on
http://aa.lastminute-packages.com) and all other fares defined as ineligible for standard AAdvantage mileage accrual are ineligible to earn this bonus (see
www.aa.com/earn for details). Bonus miles will be earned and credited to the account of the person traveling only when flight activity is posted to the traveler's AAdvantage account. Bonus miles do not count toward elite-status qualification. Double miles will be calculated at 100% of the base miles earned. No registration is required. American reserves the right to change or discontinue bonus offers at any time.
