American Airlines makes AAdvantage miles more flexible with ability to redeem miles for gift cards
FORT WORTH, Texas - The award-winning American Airlines AAdvantage® program just got more rewarding with the launch of the AAdvantage® gift cards platform. Members can now redeem miles for gift cards from top brands - including Sephora, Nike and Best Buy® - across retail, dining, entertainment and more. Gift card values range from $10 to $500, giving members more everyday ways to use their miles. Customers can visit aadvantagegiftcards.com to redeem their miles for gift cards. The platform also supports a variety of American partner reward programs, expanding the ways members can redeem miles for gift cards.
"The AAdvantage® program offers customers more value for their miles than any other U.S. airline, and our members are looking for more flexibility in how they redeem them," said Scott Long, American's Senior Vice President of AAdvantage®. "By expanding our portfolio of member offerings and adding new ways to use miles, such as gift cards, we're making it easier for customers to engage with the program and experience the full value of AAdvantage®."

More ways to redeem miles
As the company celebrates its centennial, the AAdvantage® program continues to expand the way members can use their miles, bringing them closer to the things they love.
Today, members can redeem miles across a wide variety of travel and lifestyle options, including:
- Flights and upgrades
- AAdvantage Hotels® and AAdvantage Cars®
- American Airlines Vacations℠
- Inflight purchases such as food and beverages
- Unique experiences through Mastercard Priceless® experiences
Building on this foundation, American added even more choices last year with the launch of the AAdvantage Exchange℠ platform, which allows members to redeem their miles for curated essentials and premium retail items, while also expanding the AAdvantage Cruises® partnership to add redemption capabilities.
The introduction of AAdvantage® gift cards builds on this momentum by expanding the program's lifestyle redemption options and gives members more value and flexibility.
