Looking to take the hassle out of trip planning? You’ll love the new promotions available with American Airlines Vacations, offering up to $125 in savings or up to 25,000 bonus miles on your next holiday.

Packages can sometimes save you money over booking each element of your trip individually, and it can definitely be easier to book everything at once. If you’re interested in that idea, AA has enticing offers right now, but you need to book by the end of the month.

What Is American Airlines Vacations?

American Airlines Vacations, also known as AAVacations, says it provides savings through unpublished flight fares when you book vacation packages. Packages include a flight plus a hotel and/or rental car booked together, and you also earn bonus AAdvantage miles on these packages.

When booking your trip, you can pay with your AAdvantage miles. You also can split your vacation payments into 12 monthly payments, though this comes with interest.

Double Miles [Targeted]

You may have received this offer via email. If you have it, you can earn double AAdvantage miles on packages through September 30, 2025. You need to register for the offer by April 19, though.

Typically, members earn 1 AAdvantage mile and 1 Loyalty Point per $1 spent on vacation packages, but this offer increases the earning rate to 2x AAdvantage miles. Your package must include at least 2 elements to qualify, meaning a flight plus either a rental car or a hotel.

The offer is even better for those with AAdvantage elite status, offering 10x miles and 5x Loyalty Points on spending. There’s a maximum of 25,000 bonus miles available in this offer.

Hot Tip:

We value American Airlines miles at 1.4 cents each. That means 25,000 miles are worth $350. Earning 2x miles on spending provides a 2.8% return on spending.
