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:

Business Extra's standard earning rate is 1 point per $5 spent on base airfare plus carrier charges and fees. With this promotion, you'll earn 2 points per $5 spent. As an example of what you can get and how fast you can get it, redemptions start at 300 points for an Admirals Club day pass. Through these promotions you can get one of these passes for just $750 in airfare spending. Or for $1,625 of spending, you'll earn 650 points — enough for a one-segment upgrade anywhere in North America, including Hawaii and the Caribbean.
