15% Off American Airlines Coupon for Dealfinder Installation
Update: This appears to be targeted, so don't be surprised if you install and don't find the 15% offer.
American Airlines is encouraging AAdvantage members to download their desktop deal application "Dealfinder" by offering a 15% off coupon on a future flight.
| DealFinder is a downloadable desktop tool offered by American Airlines which allows you to receive automatic, personalized fare alerts and other information via your computer desktop. Once you download the tool and set your travel preferences, DealFinder will alert you about deals to your favorite destinations. By creating searches for your upcoming trips, DealFinder will also show you the current lowest prices and alert you when the price is at or below your target price. The application can also help you stay up to date with news, information and promotions from American Airlines. |

I installed the application (for blog writing purposes) and I found the process to be pretty quick and easy. I had entered JFK as my home airport and I noticed my 15% off coupon was for domestic round-trips starting and ending in one of the NYC airports. I assume that requirement will change if you enter a different home airport (so keep that in mind when registering).
"As a DealFinder subscriber, please enjoy this exclusive 15% off* discount on your next flight! Book your flight by August 12, 2011, for travel September 6 through November 14, 2011 and save!

*To qualify, book your reservations on AA.com by 11:59 p.m. (CT) Friday, August 12, 2011, and travel September 6, 2011 through November 14, 2011.

As I've moaned about before, fares have been rising lately, so every discount counts!
