How to Redeem the Airline Miles You've Earned Oct 2nd 2013, 11:01, by airtravel.guide@about.com There is a skill to redeeming frequent flyer miles. Not every seat on every flight is available for payment with frequent flyer miles, but rather a varying percentage of seats are made available. You will be competing for fewer available seats, so the top 10 list for how to redeem your miles is even more important. Some of the redemption options that American Airlines offers are quite different from other frequent flyer plans such as teaming up with programs that allow you to use miles towards savings for college. American Airlines' Top 10 ways to use the miles you've earned 1.
