Never give up. If it was booked with an AA cc you have good chances for a easy dispute

Anyone know what this means (from DDMS):

"Note that some AA agents will actually let you fly anywhere in the US/Canada for 17.5K miles round-trip as long as you are departing from one of the valid destination airports. YMMV!"

I thought the valid destinations are destinations not departure cities?!?!?

That is exactly what the post means. If you can get the right agent, they can do it.

Would this still be eligible for the 10% rebate on awards for cardholders?

If so, it's essentially 7875 coach/ 19,125 first (biz) (up to the max 10k rebate)

If not, the discount is really 2500 coach/ 1250 first (bus) rather than the 3750 advertised.

Are you able to change the date on a reduced mileage award to a date outside the promo period, without paying the additional miles?

The new Reduced Mileage Awards were added today, and you can now book for travel through May 2017.

Save 2k on RT flights of under 500 miles each way, or 7.5K on over 500 miles.

Many many destinations to choose from!

Not different, just promo awards that change destinations based on the months. These haven't been posted on DDMS in a long time.
