No way
Really? I thought it wasn’t a bad deal
You'd be overpaying https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/travel/how-much-are-my-american-airlines-miles-worth
Pretty much :)
Why would you not just do some shopping or knock out some AA hotel stays. You’d at least…get a hotel night. With status there’s tons of stays giving the full 15k.
Aadvantage hotels. Prices are often higher, but some are margin of error. It’s been nerfed over time, but it’s easy to rack up tens of thousands of loyalty points that way.
It probably depends on which status level this would push you into and how much you value those benefits. If you travel a lot for work or otherwise on AA/OneWorld and it pushes you into Platinum/Sapphire or higher, I think it’s worth it.
No - worth half IMO
