DEQM AA ORD to LAX and SFO May 06-Aug 31 (IL & CA AA Members ONLY)

From an AA email sent to me today:

Earn double flight miles AND double-elite qualifying miles, and qualify or re-qualify for AAdvantage® elite status faster than ever! Just book a round-trip ticket and fly on American Airlines between Chicago O'Hare and Los Angeles or San Francisco now through August 31, 2011. To qualify, simply:
• Book your ticket by August 31, 2011
• Register prior to travel using promotion code DECSL
• Complete your travel by August 31, 2011


The details:



Note: This offer is valid only for AAdvantage members with an address on file with AAdvantage Marketing programs in California or Illinois.

Terms and Conditions:
Offer only applies to AAdvantage members with an address on file with AAdvantage Marketing Programs in California or Illinois. AAdvantage promotion is valid for round-trip travel on purchased, published fare tickets on American Airlines marketed and operated nonstop flights between Chicago (ORD) and Los Angeles (LAX) or San Francisco (SFO) from May 6, 2011 through August 31, 2011. A round trip is defined as two one-way trips booked in a single reservation under one ticket number. Reservations containing open jaws are eligible. A maximum of one round trip is permitted per reservation. Reservation must be booked on or after May 6, 2011, to be eligible. Bonus elite qualifying miles earned in conjunction with flight activity during 2011 will count towards your 2012 membership year. This offer does not increment the member's elite qualifying points or segments. Double elite-qualifying miles and double flight miles will be calculated at 100% of the base miles earned for the flights between Chicago and Los Angeles or between Chicago and San Francisco only. Promotional miles associated with this offer will be posted to the account of the traveling AAdvantage member within 6-8 weeks after qualifying activity posts to your account. Promotion does not apply to travel on mileage award tickets or fares that are ineligible for AAdvantage mileage accrual. Flights operated by our codeshare partners or oneworld alliance carriers are not eligible for this promotion. This offer cannot be combined with other AAdvantage promotions. Registration prior to travel is required.

I really hope UA will match this one - this is their hubs after all.

Don't you realixze, all the double EQM promos for the last half year have been matches to new Virgin America service involving AA hubs.

Since Virgin America didn't launch any new service between NYC and any other AA hub, why are you surprised that there's nothing for NYC???

An obvious question - is this for ORD-LAX/SFO as origin-destination or would LAX-ORD-abc work as well?
I don't see any obvious comments on this in T&Cs.

But can those nonstops be a part of longer itinerary to qualify?
I believe with DFW promo it was possible so i assume ti's gonna be the same here.

The DFW - LAX/SFO promo in Jan / Feb yeilded points on flights routing thru DFW. So one might conclide that it would work for this offer as well.

xxx-ord-LAX/SFO
XXX-SFO/LAX-ORD

or perhaps even XXX-SFO/LAX-ORD-XXX

dream of SAN/CLD-LAX-ORD-MKE

It is a good post. Completely legit. But I'm going to guess that the OP is a marketing functionary at AA. The whole post reads like an advert....and it is.
