For example, if you qualify in May 2022, your membership year is valid through February 2024. That means you’ll have until March 30, 2023, to choose your reward. If you have more than one reward choice, you can choose one after qualifying and the other later, or both rewards later. It’s up to you.

The reward I chose for this year (had to choose by 12/30) was the 25,000 miles with the 5,000 bonus for having an AA branded credit card (I'm PP). I got the 25,000 miles deposited almost right away yesterday but the 5,000 for the credit card has still not been deposited. My AA credit card is connected to my AA account (one of the cards, anyway).
I read through the T & C's and didn't see anything that states there was a wait for the credit card miles. Anyone else choose the miles? Were they all deposited at the same time?
Thanks in advance

I chose the 15% reward as I booked just one way 215 k F to London for dfw and I. Wished I could have used RT but we are coming back from cph at 57.5 so not usable on multi city . Also chose the level 2 25 k awards for both posted immediately not sure what I’ll do with level 3 probably miles too.

Dammit. I just chose the 15% award discount and instantly regretted the decision. T&C says nothing about when it expires but evidently it expires 1 year from selection.

Caveat emptor
it does state that it expires in 1 yr and you must get reward before you book the travel. Call aa to have discount applied after travel

Do you think AA will give me any problems using 15% cert for multi-city LAX-HKG-AKL? I guess it's technically not roundtrip but it's all on same carrier and was able to book online on one record locator.

Also, it really doesn’t say anything about 1 year expiration. System-wide upgrade award has a nice clear message stating that it expires after 1 year. The discount award says noth8ng.

in your wallet if you click on the i information icon for the award it does say it expires one year from the date. I already selected mine so I can’t bring it up and post perhaps someone can

It mentions the 1 year expiration AFTER you select it but nothing before making choice. I still have my 2022 platinum pro award unselected and there is nothing that says 1 expiration expiration.
