Let's hear all your excellent MR stories, everyone!
My best was a YYC-DFW-LAX-OGG(Maui) returning via HNL-DFW-ORD-YYC on AA during their 25th anniversary special. $550 with taxes all told.
Total mileage for this run, with the booking bonus, was around 23,000 miles. Too bad I wasn't elite status back then
It did bump me to Gold, at least, and I recieved some Elite miles.
Too bad that double AA miles promo won't be around again anytime soon. It would be an excellent way to get Silver without spending too much or flying too much!
I love AA!
