AA will not budge. I had a coworker who ended up 7 miles short, they said he needed to fly those miles or purchase their buy up offer.

You can probably buy it, look around your account for an offer

Also, in the future, sometimes you can just buy-up to business class to get a 200% boost on EQM for your existing itinerary. It makes life easier come year end!

Not sure on AA but United will not budge even a mile. A few years ago I was short less than 100 and they wouldn't round. I ended up doing a day trip to get the miles and 1k.

Have you booked all your travel for the rest of the year? If not then maybe include a stop. I don’t think AA budge either. Could always beg but unlikely to work

You’ll have to do a milage run

I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts?

Honestly trying not to cry from sheer relief.

My in-laws used to own a jewelry store, and they had this Omega quartz watch in their storage. I can understand why this wasn’t sold during their clearance sale lol. I had no idea Omega made stuff like this in 1987! I guess they couldn’t help it after the rise of quartz watches in the 70s to 80s. I doubt they’re worth anything even to this day. I see them on eBay for $700-1200, so who knows…
