I am new to AFF but hoping to enjoy using
my query relates to using AAdvantage miles ( bought when you get bonus miles) to use to book flights Australia to Europe . Is this a good option to get business class flights ?

Welcome aboard Mary Carol Kelly. AAdvantage miles are an excellent way to get business and indeed first class flights to Europe.

Thankyou Hvr
i haven't tried buying miles and using them to book business class flights before but the current promotion of an extra 60000 bonus miles when you buy 100000 looks ok -as long as I can use them

If you're currently an AA member then this promotion is great. Basically you can get a return trip to Europe in F. Yes you need to plan well ahead and be a bit flexible but the work is worth it.

I've just returned from London travelling both ways in F, it cannot be beaten as a way to travel.

Welcome aboard!

note that you can search availability and then hold the fair for 48 hours (I think), before purchasing the miles

Welcome Mary.

Yes AA points are excellent for J/F travel, booking way ahead is best bet and finding flights available on the likes of BA & JL before calling AA even better.

AFF have dedicated AA forum here, so ask away.

Yes my husband and I aremembers ( although no current points) I presume we could both buy the points and 160000 would be enough to get to Europe ? Found it hard to actually check how many miles / points needed to get PERTH to Paris or uk
