Got my 500 as well. Congratulations on making it to 2 mill. I had a feeling you would beat me on that. I'll catch up.....eventually.

I'd like to say they were "real" miles (BIS) but most have come from "other" sources. In fact, it wouldn't surprse me if I had the worst ratio of BIS miles to other sources than anyone on FT.

I don't have nearly as many as you guys, but ALL my AA miles came from other sources . I've never flown AA or TWA (where a good portion of my miles came from due to the merger). I got a good chunk of TWA miles back when Sprint was offering a 5K mile signup bonus and AT&T was offering a 5K Continental mile signup bonus. Just kept flipping long distance carriers on my business home phone line and racking up the bonuses w/o ever flying TWA (though I did fly Continental) . Still looking for ways to get "free" miles on (in descending order of preference) Continental, AA, Delta, and USAirways.

And my 500 toolbar miles also finally posted this morning ^:-:. I've got some 100 mile search globs waiting to post. These will be useful to keep extending the expiration date for the AA miles and are easy to generate while watching TV.

Mine, also from May, also finally posted - the 500 miles did; however, the miles for the searches have not (but since they are only 21 or so its no big deal).

The search miles are supposed to take 60 days. I haven't received the May search miles yet either. See also post 101:

A couple years ago I posted the percentage break out of my AA miles, but believe that has changed with a heavy slant to non-flown AA miles. I get a fair share from hotels and partners, a bunch from AA Reward Dining (the old AA-IDine) and tons from AA eshopping.

What we need is a good food item related miles program like the Kellogg's one or the Pudding.

Huh, was wondering what my 7 miles were for. I never knew that I could earn miles that way. Guess I should start utilizing that search toolbar more often. Thanks for the tip! ^^

Same here but I only had 72 as pending and I made a concerted effort to get the 100 miles for 300 searches.

I suppose we are SOL.

Does anyone know who is running this program?

They do have an issue. Every month (May, June, July) I reached the 100 miles and my account shows only 84 pending miles .
