American AAdvantage members who want to top off their accounts with a quick 1,000 miles have a new, easy way to do it.
It’s called AAdvantage University.
American created the cleverly engaging series of six online mini-courses to familiarize members with all the ins and outs of the complex AAdvantage program.
The program is working, too. Since yesterday 150,000+ members have watched the videos according to YouTube.
New: United’s sweet 50,000-mile bonus is back
Unless you consider yourself an expert already, it might be worthwhile to sit through the classes; they’re only a couple of minutes each.
You’ll pick 150 bonus miles for each of the six courses you finish, plus an extra 100 for finishing them all. (And you don’t even have to answer quiz questions correctly to get the points.)
Or if your time is worth more to you for other purposes, here’s a trick: Just pull that little white and red progress button at the bottom of each video to zip through it in a couple of seconds instead of the full 1-2 minutes.

And here’s another trick…after you go through it once, you can back page to the page where you fill out info and populate other AAdvantage numbers for friends and family without having to go through it.
