Welcome to FT
Redeem is when you use miles. You want to claim/earn freq flyer miles

Retro credit of flights to a FFP varies by airline. For many you need to be a signed up member at the date of the flight. However US Airways (at as April 11 2014) allows you credit miles from flights taken 6 months before the date join US dividend miles ffp. US Airways ffp will merge into AA ffp, and is a good ffp for many people

Some information here but may not be up to date
