Hello
I'm wondering if one can earn American Airlines miles when ThankYou points are redeemed for flights on AA through Citi ThankYou portal.

What's been the experience with others? Does American give you miles for it?

I ask because in my opinion its kind of a cash redemption and not redeeming miles through AAdvantage program. So American should award miles for Citi's ThankYou point redemption.

I may be wrong but want to learn what's been the experience for others.

Thanks in advance.
