When the AAdvantage program began on May 1, 1981, membership was by invitation only and rewards included a first-class ticket to any destination American flew to. Today, the program has more than 115 million members, of which 144,000 have been active since the first year.
“AAdvantage continues to be the most customer-friendly airline loyalty program. Throughout our first 40 years, it has been our privilege to reward members for their continued loyalty to American with innovative benefits, unique partnerships and an evolving program that is made for every customer,” said Rick Elieson, President of the AAdvantage program.
