Register for Double AA Business Extra Points on Transatlantic and South America Flights
You may not know that American Airlines has a business rewards program, but AA's Business Extra is a great way for businesses large and small to get credit for booking flights for employees. While allowing employees to earn their standard mileage credit, businesses get "points," which can be redeemed for free flights, upgrades, lounge passes, lounge membership and even elite status.
And now businesses can score these rewards twice as fast on certain flights. Get double points on flights across the Atlantic and between Los Angeles (LAX) and Buenos Aires (EZE). But, in order to double your business' earnings, you'll first have to register for these promotions. Here are the details and how to register:
