Do I have to mail in the stamped cupons (hopefully someone shows up in the train) or do they credit automatically even if you go by train or not
Same system at SNCF in France...
Thanks, :-:
AFAIK, the train has to be booked with AA flight to get the miles. It books as AA coded flight. There is no other way.
