Re-instating Expired AA Miles
« on: November 02, 2015, 01:18:57 PM »
Anyway to do reinstate without paying the crazy fees. I called Advantage and they claim that they stopped the Re-Engage ChAAlenge and no longer do it. I also cant seem to find any expired car rentals for that period!

If you guys mean opening a CC for the signup bonus, that won't work as it needs to be BASE miles.

The CC option doesn't work anymore? And im assuming transferring from SPG wouldn't qualify either?

What do you mean by credit card option? Spending 5k on an AA credit card will work as that is base miles but any bonus miles won't count.

Not sure about SPG.
