Quick Overview
- American Airlines transfer partners consist solely of hotel loyalty programs and are not linked to any major credit card rewards programs.
- Hotel partners won’t earn many AA miles, but transfers to AA can be helpful for topping off your account if you're just a few miles short of a redemption.
- AAdvantage miles cannot be transferred to other airlines but can be redeemed on aa.com for flights with American Airlines, oneworld Alliance members, and other global partners.
Use our AAdvantage transfer partners calculator to determine how many AA miles you'll earn when you transfer to American from partner rewards programs.
