American Airlines makes bonus miles offer for regular flier club members

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) - Members of American Airlines' regular flier club will get a bonus on some transcontinental flights.

The airline said Thursday that its AAdvantage members can earn up to 50,000 bonus miles on certain fares when flying nonstop transcontinental routes among New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport and Los Angeles International Airport or San Francisco International Airport.

The big bonus relates to members flying roundtrip on some first and business class fares.

For coach passengers, the offer provides AAdvantage members the chance to earn 25,000 bonus miles for roundtrip travel, depending in part on the fare category they book.

Customers must register on the airline's Web site and fly between now and June 30 to be eligible for the endorsement.
