Up to 90,000 bonus miles for six W/J/F flights on AA/QR* to/from DOH

Hey, has anyone gotten the up to 90,000 bonus miles for premium cabin to Doha for AA?

Seems it's very selective who they sent it too, and not even universally to EXP.

To be clear, you'd get 90,000 for six flights USA-Qatar or Qatar-USA in biz or first. I suppose there are flyers who'd make three round trips in three months time. I'll be making just one, but of course, I registered and booked my flights. I was pleasantly surprised to get the offer when it turned out I was planning a trip during the eligible period.

I got the offer email I assume because I have a Qatar flight booked on October. Not sure if being EXP had anything to do with it or not.

Hoping it goes through. Booked through Qatar and Qatar flights only and included my AAdvantage # in the reservation so I'm hoping it's seamless like normal mileage accumulatio on partners. Was a little confused reading the fine print because it lists fare classes that are eligible and the P class fare I booked through Qatar for business lite does not show up under the business fare codes they listed. Instead they have P listed as a Qatar first class fare in the fine print. Odd...?

I'm excited. It's so rare that my travel needs correspond to any AA promo that I can make use of.

I noticed the offer on my account a couple weeks ago and registered just in case. I have rarely flown AA recently as most of flying is with UA past few years. So don't think the offer is selective. But I have searched a lot of flights to/from Doha on my AA account over the past few months so perhaps they are trying to convince me to book.

I got this offer.

I have flown AA internationally once ever, round trip in flagship F on 77W which was earlier this year (though this should become more frequent starting later this year, they would never know that). I flew from the US to LHR on the way to NAP and then back in FF; the NAP<->LHR legs were BA codeshare flights but otherwise everything was AA. I have never set foot on any other foreign carrier's flights.

Typically I fly domestically 4-5 times per year (also should become more frequent from here on). Have also done a single 321T leg in F, also this year.

So definitely NOT a very frequent air traveler. Guessing my 12 month rolling LP's at ~350,000. I first got EXP last year due almost wholly to CC spend. Hope the info helps someone here figure out the magic formula to get the offer, because I sure ain't gonna take AA up on it!

D'uh. I didn't even think of that. That might have been what triggered the offer for me.

I could not at all understand why I got this promotion, as I have never traveled to the middle East. However, now, it looks like I might be going to Kuwait next week. Of course, I dont see my company springing for premium tickets.

Sidenote: if I am going just for a few days to do a quick inspection and a consulting project, will I be OK with just a tourist visa? A work visa would be more for if I am trying to get employment in country, right?

I flew several segments, and the app shows that they have qualified in the "counter" for the promotion. But, the miles have not posted yet. Has anyone received their miles yet? or do we have to wait for the promotion to finish?

I have a Main Cabin ticket booked on Qatar and my wife and I received DIFFERENT VERSIONS of the same promotion. Had I received the version she got, I'd get a few thousand bonus miles, but my promo is only for premium cabin. We're both EXP and this is the first time I've flown Qatar.
My Promo:
15,000 bonus miles for First or Business, 5,000 bonus miles on Premium Economy fares.
Wife's Promo:
15,000 bonus miles for First or Business, 5,000 bonus miles on Premium Economy fares, 2,000 bonus miles on Main Cabin fares.

Kinda BS, honestly.

Got the promo. Flew QR business Lax/Doh/Sgn. Doh/Sgn posted normally with miles and loyalty points.

Lax/ Doh has yet to post either for regular miles, loyalty points or bonus

Requested missing miles and, so far, crickets...

I registered for the promo a couple months back when I got the offer. Had a paid J flight DOH-JFK about 10 days ago, and the 15,000 bonus posted immediately with the regular miles posting.

I guess they are not giving it then to people who frequent them (aka, me) but people who are less engaged in flights with AA. Yeah, "marketing" think.

It says miles post 14 days after the flight posts, but it’s been three weeks for me and nothing. Has anyone else gotten their miles yet?
