Your AAdvantage Platinum Travel Agent: 4 Key Booking Services

AAdvantage Platinum Flight Booking

1. Book New Flights, Including Domestic, International, and Award Travel

• Domestic Flights: These are flights within the same country, such as traveling from New York to Los Angeles within the United States.
• International Flights: These involve travel between different countries, such as a trip from Chicago to London.
• Award Travel: This refers to using your accumulated AAdvantage miles to book flights instead of paying cash. The number of miles required varies based on the destination, date, and cabin class.

The AAdvantage customer service team can assist you in searching for available flights, comparing fares, and completing the booking process for any of these types of travel.

1. Make Changes to Existing Reservations, Such as Modifying Dates, Times, or Destinations

• Date Changes: If your travel plans change, you may need to adjust the dates of your existing reservation.
• Time Changes: You might need to change the departure or arrival time of your flight due to unforeseen circumstances.
• Destination Changes: In some cases, you may need to change your destination altogether.

The AAdvantage customer service team can help you navigate the process of modifying your reservation, including checking for applicable fees or fare differences and ensuring the changes are reflected accurately in your booking.

1. Request Upgrades to a Higher Class of Service, Subject to Availability

• Upgrading with Miles: If you have enough AAdvantage miles, you can request an upgrade to a higher cabin class, such as from Main Cabin to First Class or Business Class.
• Systemwide Upgrades: Platinum Pro members receive four systemwide upgrades each year, which can be used to upgrade on most American Airlines flights, subject to availability.
• Complimentary Upgrades: Depending on your elite status level and fare class, you may be eligible for complimentary upgrades, which are processed automatically based on availability.

The customer service team can assist you in requesting upgrades, checking upgrade availability, and applying your systemwide upgrades if applicable.

1. Get Help with Special Seating Requests, Such as Aisle Seats or Bulkhead Seats

• Aisle Seats: These seats are located on the side of the aircraft, providing easy access to the aisle and more legroom.
• Bulkhead Seats: These seats are located in the first row of each cabin section, offering extra legroom but potentially limited recline.
• Other Special Seating: Depending on the aircraft, other special seating options may be available, such as exit row seats or preferred seats with additional legroom.

If you have specific seating preferences, the customer service team can help you check availability and request those seats, subject to any applicable fees or restrictions.

Remember that the AAdvantage customer service team is there to assist you with all aspects of your travel booking and experience. Don’t hesitate to contact them if you need any help or have questions about any of these topics!
