We buy and eat a lot of Kellogg's cereals which have the silver airplane on the front of the box and a certificate for 100 AA ff miles on the back.

A fantastic program. You get good food, plenty miles and we have been losing weight.

A great deal for us!

Do a search on AA 20/20 promotion (for last year), you will see all kinds of fantastic ways to get miles.

Also, go to aa.com, AAdvantage, Earning Miles, and look at the Partners section.

I use MCI long-distance phone service. It's worth 6 miles per dollar: 5 for the phone, 1 for having the bills go to my AA Visa.

Hi Y2K, I'm also new to these boards but have learned tons from the generous FT'ers. Here's a recent thread which should be helpful:

Well that didn't work - the link I posted was a bust!

But I see a way to email you the link, so I'll attempt that!

I'm really striking out here! Y2K - you don't list an email!

Here's my last attempt at the link:

If it doesn't work - can't say I didn't try!
