FoundersCard American Airlines Benefit

There’s another new Founderscard American Airlines benefit. FC Members can now receive double Business Extra Points for 90 days after enrolling in the offer by August 10, 2020. For my complete Founderscard Guide and link to my video review click here: FoundersCard Review and Benefits Guide 2020

If you’re not familiar with Business Extra, it’s AA’s Business Loyalty program that offers rewards for employee travel. When an employee flies with AA, British Airways or Iberia (as well as certain codeshare flights) the member business receives 1 point for every $5 in base fare paid for the ticket and the individual traveler receives their miles as usual.

How to Enroll

Enrollment took me about 30 seconds, so there’s no reason not to enroll even if you don’t think you’ll be travelling because- hey you never know.

FoundersCard Members must register for this promotion by clicking “Redeem Benefit” on the AA Business Extra Benefit Page. You’ll be automatically redirected to the Promotions Page on the Business Extra site and although it says to enter the promo code, mine populated automatically. If you don’t have an account, just sign up now and submit the info accordingly.

Thoughts

This isn’t groundbreaking and certainly isn’t worth going out of your way to utilize, but every little bit helps.  There have been a bunch of American airline specific benefits available to Founders Card members in past years and they tend to change a few times per year. Earlier this year I was very impressed by the AA status challenge benefit covered here:

  • FoundersCard Offers Free AA Status and Challenge Plus Option to Choose Challenge Dates!

Of course some of the other airline benefits for FC members are of questionable value, but since this is just an added bonus so it’s a nice little perk.  FC also offers discounts on British Airways, Singapore Airlines and Caesars Rewards (aka Total rewards) Diamond status. Head to the Promotion page on Founders Card for other details and how to enroll in the benefit.

Here’s a quick list of FoundersCard Benefits I’ve covered in the past:

      I guess we’re even since I don’t take people seriously who have so much time on their hands they’re able to complain about spelling errors. I think what I’m trying to say is- get a life. Thanks for reading!
