Are you saying you did this BEFORE the promo started?

I got it too, but then again I haven't done anything other than playing the games.

Never mind: I expected the stamp to turn a darker color when I achieved that goal, but it doesn't. The fine print reveals that I have made that stamp.

My EQP is 8100. Not sure how they figured it out. I probably won't make it, I tend to travel in spurts.

I flew on 4/22 (miles posted on aa.com) and as of yet that slider bar has showed none of my EQPs. I also didn't get the fly US airways extra 450 miles nor the extra 450 for one of the "new" destinations. I expected it could take up to 10 days, but this amount of time has me wondering if I had to do something.

I flew US on 3/23, posted to AA on 3/26, and it showed up on the facebook game on 4/8. So, it looks like its a 2 week process.

I had an international roundtrip on AA - outbound on 4/16, return on 4/23. Both flights posted to AA account quickly. Still nothing is reflected on facebook: neither "fly international" stamp, nor EQP.

How sad is this... my EQP is only 3000... and I probably won't make it because of a break in travel!

Is there a list somewhere of the new domestic route new to the AA network through the merger? Specifically, I think BUR-PHX qualifies, but I wanted to confirm.

BUR-PHX qualifies, however, I think the new route bonus is slightly ambiguous. On the main passport challenge it simply says "earn AAdvantageŽ miles for flying any domestic route that is new to the American Airlines network from our merger with US Airways between March 21 and May 23." To me, this would mean any US route that AA didn't previously fly should qualify.

The official terms and conditions (https://aadvantagechallenge.aa.com/t...cial_Rules.pdf) however includes a limited list of qualifying cities. Unfortunately, none of my recent US flights qualify despite the fact that AA doesn't fly the route.

Wow, super lame! I was counting on LGA-PIT for this. This is very misleadingly phrased. It should have been "new city," not "new route."

When are these miles expected to post to the Aadvantage account?

NVM -- Rules say 3 - 4 weeks after promotion period ends which is 3 - 4 weeks after May 23rd.

Need these pesky miles to extend expiration...
