Did a quick compare/contrast of the two threads and T&Cs. I do think this does look to be a different promo. The blackout dates are the same, but the language in the T&C are indeed different and have different restrictions and minimum purchase requirements. Let's keep these two threads separate for now and re-assess if we get more info. Thanks! /Moderator

I got the second offer too. It is definitely different from the previous one.
Does anyone know if 15% fare discount offer is applicable to international travels?
"...for purchasing a published domestic round-trip with a minimum fare of $250.80 including taxes and fees..." appears to be applicable to domestic travels only
".. Offer is valid in conjunction with travel from the US/PR/VI/Canada to any other city served by American Airlines.." appears to be applicable to any trip originating from US/PR/VI/Canada

Hey, I don't care where this gets discussed, but it seems counterproductive to have the discussion in two separate threads, with people making the same comments in both, and anybody who wants to find out about this having to comb through two threads. But I certainly don't want to discuss a specific moderator action, so I guess the rule against crossposting is now no longer operative and we'll go with two discussions. I'm getting whiplash from trying to follow this anyway.
