E-rewards is going to give AA miles
 

Your free American Airlines ticket or first-class upgrade is closer than ever! Starting January 3, 2003, you can redeem your e-Rewards for the opportunity to earn up 2,500 AAdvantage Bonus Miles! And when you're ready, book your flight on AA.com.

1,000 AAdvantage® Bonus Miles from American Airlines

$50
2,500 AAdvantage® Bonus Miles from American Airlines

Great News!

In my view 2,500 AA miles is better value than the 3,000 HHonors points available at $50.

It also means that if you get up to $50 in a year, each basic e-rewards email (now worth 50c it seems) is worth the equivalent of 25 AA Miles - very respectable compared to mypoints.

student, where did you got that information

------------------
776,888 Miles, AAdvantage Platinum - Free Flyer for 8 Straight years.

It is on the e-rewards site.

No word on higher dollar redemption levels.. hopefully they will offer more miles for $100+!

It was about time.

I wish Delta would do that instead http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

Good news... but these awards are expensive. What balances do you have in E-rewards... I have less than $20.... (!!!!!!) http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

And what happens if you don't get to $25 by year end?

You have until March 30th to spend the amount earned in the previous year.. so you have a little extra earning time.

What makes this even better is that the exchange rate of AA->HH is going to increase to 2-1 after Jan 1st also. So while $50 in E-rewards gets you 3000 HH pts, if you get 2500 AA miles, it can be part of a transfer to HH worth 5000 pts.

In increments of 5000 AA miles only.

thanks Cactus, that's what I meant by part of a transfer, but as always, I should assume nothing http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

I have around $92.00 now. I've seen posts that say they already have $100.00!! Pretty cool for responding to e-mail!
