Not a bad program, but....

by sweetsue_98 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Jun 08 '00
Pros: About the same as any other airline program
Cons: Your name gets sold
We belong to several frequent flier programs, and frankly there is none that is a particular favorite. We probably have more activity with Northwest, due to our account with Sprint.

Good overall program, and too big to ignore

by rmccamy , Nov 20 '02
Pros: Strong partnerships, largest worldwide route structure (Star Alliance), many bonus opportunities
Cons: Availability is tight to popular destinations, customer service below the superelite level is VERY poor.
I'm not sure which is larger: AAdvantage or MileagePlus. It doesn't really matter however, because any serious mileage addict will probably want to accrue miles in both accounts.
