Also there is no mention of getting a PIN. I have gotten tickets OK on AA site many times with no real problems. For this trip I ordered my ticket/seat OK with my accumulated miles . For my wife I am now in a position to use this AA VIRTUAL GC . I got all the way through the selection process and it urged me to select her seats – that's good. When I go to pay there is no real place to use the appropriate VGC #. I called AA and that associate had no clue for what I should do – I asked for Mgr. And went on hold …never got to talk. my session expired. I went back in and repeated the selection process and put it on hold till tonight. I went in OTHER MEANS OF PAYMENT and it just provides places to enter info on physical Gcs – and demands a PIN # so I get nowhere. Perhaps I have to complete this order over the phone with a AA person.

Any experienced users here can direct me ?? Or suggestions ?? Thanks in advance.
I found this language on aa.com:

"If you received a virtual card you may retrieve your Card # and PIN # by clicking on the link sent to you via email." If you only received a piece of paper, you may have to reach out to the gifter and hope that they still have the original email from AA to get the PIN.

The phone number for aa.com technical support is: 800-222-2377.

Good luck.

Edited to add: And a belated welcome to FlyerTalk!
