American Airlines and JetSMART announced tuesday that customers can earn AAdvantage miles when flying on JetSMART-operated flights throughout South America.
JetSMART customers can join the AAdvantage program for free when purchasing tickets on JetSMART’s website, enabling them to earn miles on both domestic and international flights operated by JetSMART.

“We are excited to welcome JetSMART and their customers to the AAdvantage program, the most valuable travel rewards program,” said Scott Chandler, American’s Senior Vice President of Revenue Management and Loyalty. “This is a significant milestone in our partnership that offers customers more low fares and more travel options throughout South America.”
The strategic partnership between American and JetSMART launched in 2023 with codeshare itineraries between the United States and Chile and recently expanded to flights in Peru and Argentina. Together, the airlines are creating the broadest network in North and South America, offering more ways for customers to earn and use their miles.
“By deepening our partnership with American, we are continuing to make history, furthering our mission of bringing air travel to every corner of the continent. Our customers will now be able to earn miles when they fly on the JetSMART network and connect to American’s global network,” said Estuardo Ortiz, CEO of JetSMART.
Started in 1981 to reward frequent flyers, AAdvantage is the longest-running travel rewards program in the world.
