Earn miles

You can earn AAdvantage® miles when you fly on Aer Lingus marketed and operated flights and Aer Lingus codeshare flights operated by American Airlines. Flights operated by Aer Lingus affiliate airline Emerald will also be eligible to earn AAdvantage® miles.

Here's how:

  • Buy an eligible published fare ticket in an eligible booking code
  • Fly an eligible route

When you earn eligible AAdvantage® miles for travel on Aer Lingus, you’ll also earn Loyalty Points that count toward AAdvantage® status.

Calculating miles based on ticket price

For travel on Aer Lingus marketed and operated flights, miles are earned based on ticket price (includes base fare plus carrier-imposed fees; excludes government-imposed taxes and fees). The more you spend, and the higher your AAdvantage® status, the more you'll earn.
