Quick Thoughts

I’ve bolded some of the most important key terms above. You have to be an American Airlines credit cardholder, with both Citi and Barclays cards being eligible.

You then have to register for the promotion before booking any award flights and award flights have to be booked by May 14. Eligible award flights are those flown from June 1 to July 31 and you can receive a maximum of four rebates of 400 miles for a limit of 1,600 miles back.

A 400 mile rebate isn’t particularly spectacular, but seeing as rebates when booking flight awards are a rarity (even more so now that American Airlines cards no longer offer the 10% rebate each year), it’s certainly better than nothing.
