From aa.com:
- AAdvantageŽ members must have mileage earning or redeeming activity once every 18 months in order to retain their miles. If your account has no qualifying activity in any 18-month period, all miles in the account will expire. Qualifying activity extends the expiration date of all unexpired mileage credit in your account for 18 months from the date of the qualifying activity. Qualifying activity is defined as redeeming any AAdvantageŽ award or accruing mileage credit on any eligible American, American EagleŽ or AAdvantageŽ airline participant as well as accruing mileage credit with participating hotels, car rental companies, credit cards, telecommunication providers and other service providers offering AAdvantageŽ mileage credit. Starting, July 1, 2020, the 18-month activity requirement will not apply to AAdvantage members under age 21. For those members who turned 21 years of age prior to July 1, 2020, the 18-month qualifying activity period will be applied on a pro rata basis. If your account does not include a birth date in the member profile, the account will be subject to the 18-month activity rule.
