As your question is regarding US Airways, I'll move your post to that forum.

But to answer your question, this isn't available on the website. You have to either email or call.

Send an email to the Dividend Miles desk asking for your lifetime miles flown. They usually get back within a few days.

Wouldn't this be a pretty easy statistic for US to add to their website? They obviously have the number somewhere in their system, so why not show it on my account? DL does...

Because in about 6 months, everyone's DM account will be migrated to AA... so why waste time enhancing a program that's going to disappear?

They don't even support partner awards over the Internet, or one-way awards, for much the same reason (no point in investing in something you're going to get rid of soon anyway).

It appears that the AA.com site shows both Million Miler status and total program status, so assuming they use that website post-merger, it's already there. I agree that enhancing it on usairways.com now is a waste of time, but this should have been done years ago IMO...

US Life Time Miles

Can you tell me where on my US account I can find my life time miles. It is obvious on the AA website but I cannot find it on US.

I emailed them through the web site customer service form and got a response within about 3 days. I have called in the past to find out, as well.

My lifetime US balance is a paltry 350,000. Luckily my AA lifetime is just shy of 1MM. I don't see myself making 2MM, though, so I'll be perfectly happy with the limited perks of lifetime AA Gold when the merging of accounts is done.

The AA Million Miler balance display in one's account is relatively new. At least it will be there in a very few months for everyone; IMO IT is applying the elbow grease to the move to AAdvantage and not innovating much.

I'd possibly be feeling a bit paranoid and call or email to see the MM and other numbers transferred intact to AA. But, that's me.

I don't think the Million Miler Balance is new. I seem to remember them having it for years. I believe Program to Date Miles is somewhat new. Splitting the two out would not have mattered in the past, as they were once the same thing.

I've always worried that this is an area that would get messed up in the merger.

Does anyone know what counts toward US Div. lifetime miles? Is it only actual miles flown (BIS)?
I am asking this because my AA lifetime miles are 700k, and my US Div miles are only 110k. I have flown a heck of a lot more on US than AA!

It suggests that AA lifetime miles include more than just BIS miles.

Thanks

US is BIS, though I believe it includes minimum miles (500) when that is/was applicable. AA used to include everything (credit cards, partners, and the like) until late 2011, when it moved to BIS miles only.
