Angry AA flights never post

I really don't like AA, but last week I was stuck flying them back from STL. Of course, they were delayed on both flights...no surprise.

What I dislike the most is that it seems like the miles never post without my having to send in boarding passes. With DL, they post with a delay, but on AA it just seems like they never post unless I request manual credit.

Do others have this issue or is it just a "feature" of my MP account?

AA flights post fine in my (limited) experience.

My last AA trip (Sat and Mon flights) posted Tuesday night. It seems like most of my partner miles post on Tuesday nights.

Perhaps if you are sitting in Economy, the miles take longer to disembark and post

I flew last week Friday and they have not posted yet. I notice that my DL miles typically post on Tuesday nights as well.

For what it's worth mine posted, took about a week longer than the AS miles to post.

I too have found that AS flights take a long time to post to AA. Interestingly, I flew an AA-coded, AS-oped flight recently, and the miles posted to my AA account overnight!

Mine from last weekend posted in a few days. Perhaps you should wait longer or validate that you've keyed in your frequent flyer number correctly?

still no miles

i am beginning to wonder if it has to do with purchasing via my corporate portal. although, i have also had this issue when purchasing via my own CC, granted that was over a year ago.
