There’s a new flash sale to the South Pacific for AAdvantage members who want to redeem their miles.

And while this offer is provided by American Airlines’ loyalty program, you’ll have the option to fly with AA or its partner Fiji Airways.

Right now, you can book award flights for as few as 35,000 AAdvantage miles one-way in economy or 70,000 miles in business class.

Dates and availability are limited, so you will need to move quickly if you’re interested. Let’s take a look at the details.

American Airlines Flash Sale

American Airlines is out with another flash sale, covering travel to Fiji and other parts of the Pacific. This offer applies to flights on American Airlines and Fiji Airways, now that it uses the AAdvantage program as its own rewards program.

AAdvantage members can take advantage of this flash sale when redeeming miles until October 15, 2025. Eligible travel dates are January 20 to May 31, 2026.

Flash Sale Miles Deals Terms

Whether you’re flying from the West Coast or the East Coast, you can spend as few as 35,000 miles per person to fly in economy or 70,000 miles per person in business class.

Though much of this promotion discusses flights to Fiji, we’ve found the 35k pricing also applies to Australia and New Zealand, like this nonstop from Los Angeles to Sydney:

The best we’ve found for business class to Australia or New Zealand is this 75,500-mile award from Dallas (DFW) to Brisbane (BNE) in the new Flagship Suites with doors:

Here are some booking terms to be aware of:

  • This offer is valid for flights originating in the U.S.
  • Reservations must be made by October 15, 2025.
  • Travel under this offer between January 20 and May 31, 2026.
  • Valid only on flights operated by American Airlines, American Eagle, and Fiji Airways.

If you have existing award travel booked with American Airlines, it’s worth checking to see if you can book the same flights with these promotional rates. If the availability exists, you can cancel existing tickets, have your miles refunded, and rebook at the discounted rates.
