In order to attract more and more customers in the upcoming year of 2015, American Airlines said on Monday that it will give bonus miles to the people who will buy tickets in business class and first class.
The biggest bonus that will be given to passengers who have gotten the elite status of the American AAdvantage program, will be 12000 miles per segment and people who are flying with US Airways, will be given 3000 miles in their dividend miles programs.
The Passengers, who have not enrolled with elite status, will also be able to earn extra miles, if they bought a ticket of the business class or first class.
The American Airlines group will fuse the dividend miles program of the US Airways with American’s AAdvantage program in the second quarter of 2015.

Apart from this, two major markets, i.e.; from New York to Los Angeles at 2,472 miles and from New York to San Francisco at 2,583 miles, will even get the highest bonus which in turn applies to the flights more than 3,000 miles.
Earlier, the American Airlines disclosed that it was increasing its extra miles from 25% to 50% for its AAdvantage flying program for its business class customer. That raise is “to coordinate with what dividend miles passengers receive today,” as told by American Airlines.
The president of AAdvantage “Suzzane Rubin” said that, “American Airlines is one of the biggest airlines in all over the world, as it has a large network that covers 54 countries. With such a global network, our frequent flyer program must be the best”.
