International travel

Prepare for your trip

International travel doesn’t have to be tricky – just follow these steps to help you prepare for your trip.

We recommend you:

• Check if your destination has travel restrictions and entry requirements
• Come prepared with travel documents and required paperwork
• Arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure time
• Documents and requirements you need to travel Opens another site in a new window that may not meet accessibility guidelines

Travel often?

If you travel often, skip the paperwork and lines with:

• Global Entry
• TSA PreCheck
• Mobile Passport Control Opens another site in a new window that may not meet accessibility guidelines

Travel documents and requirements

You’re responsible to make sure you have the correct documents to enter and pass through any countries during your trip, and then make your way back home. If you don’t have the required documentation and identification, you will not be allowed to board the plane and would be responsible for any resulting costs.

Keep in mind:

• Everyone traveling, regardless of age, needs their own set of travel documents.
• Always use the information exactly as it appears on your passport (to book and fill out any documents).
• Check with the consulate of every country you’re entering (or passing through) to make sure you meet all travel requirements.
• Some countries require proof of return or onward travel, a visiting address and sufficient funds for your stay.

All children, regardless of age, must have a passport and any travel documents required by the countries visited. If you’re traveling internationally with anyone under 18, you may be required to show documentary evidence of your relationship and a Letter of Consent or permission for the child's travel from the parent(s) or legal guardian not present.

Traveling with children

A passport is required for all international travel. If you're traveling anywhere overseas, you need a passport to board an international flight and to enter the country. Passport cards will not be accepted as form of I.D. for international air travel.

• Some countries require your passport to be issued at least 6 months before the day you arrive. Check your destination’s requirements if you’re unsure.
• Passports must be kept in good condition, free of any damage beyond normal wear and tear, and material alterations. You may be denied boarding if you travel with a passport that appears damaged or altered.

U.S. citizens can use any government-issued form of identification to travel between the U.S., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

More information on U.S. passports Opens another site in a new window that may not meet accessibility guidelines

In addition to a passport, some countries require a visa to enter. If you’re traveling to the U.S. for a stay less than 90 days, the Department of Homeland Security requires eligible travelers to use the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA), as part of the Visa Waiver Program (VWP). You must submit your application no later than 72 hours before departing for the U.S., but we suggest you apply for authorization when you start planning your trip. You will be denied boarding if you arrive at the airport without an approved ESTA.

An approved ESTA travel authorization is:

• Valid for up to 2 years or your passport expires, whichever comes first
• Valid for multiple entries into the U.S.
• Not a guarantee of admissibility to the U.S., approval only authorizes you to board a carrier for travel to the U.S.

To enter the U.S. under the VWP, each passenger must have a machine-readable passport. If you don’t have a machine-readable zone, a valid visa is required.

Each passenger traveling to the U.S. under the VWP must have a:

• Valid electronic (e-Passport) with this symbol on the passport cover

If you present a non-electronic passport, a valid U.S. visa will be required or you’ll be denied boarding and entry into the U.S.

Contact tracing for flights to the U.S.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requires all passengers flying to the United States to provide their contact information within 72 hours of departure. This information may be used by public health officials to follow up with passengers who may have been exposed to a contagious disease during travel.

Additional requirements

Some countries have additional requirements for travel, so we recommend that you check the U.S. Department of State website for the latest information and sign up for their Smart Traveler Enrollment Program.

Brazil has postponed requiring an eVisa for U.S., Canadian and Australian citizens until April 2025.

All visa-exempt foreign travelers who fly to, or transit through Canada now need an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA). The authorization is electronically linked to the traveler’s passport and is valid for 5 years or until the passport expires, whichever comes first.

U.S. citizens and travelers with a valid Canadian visa are exempt from this eTA requirement.

To enhance border security, passenger information will be passed through the Advanced Passenger Information (API) system and sent to U.S. Customs and Border Protection to review passenger information before the flight arrives.

• All international flights arriving and departing the U.S. are required by law to provide API data.
• API data for American Airlines/American Eagle flights is also transmitted to Customs and Immigration agencies in other countries where required by law.
• The information sharing is mandatory as part of the U.S. Aviation and Transportation Security Act.

So you are ready to book your next vacation. You might be wondering what website to use to get the best deal. Of course you will probably check popular online travel agencies like Expedia, Hotwire, or Orbitz. But did you know you can book an entire vacation package through American Airlines ?

I’ll take you through the process here to show you the benefits and drawbacks of booking a vacation through American Airlines Vacations.

Why Book With American Airlines?

There are so many places to book vacation packages these days; you might be wondering what makes American Airlines Vacations different. Let’s go over some of the key benefits that AAVacations offers.

Booking a vacation package is a pretty good way to save money. I have compared prices of lots of packages on many websites, and more often than not they do save a good chunk of cash.

American Airlines claims you will save money by gaining access to unpublished fares when booking a flight, hotel, and/or car together. (If you can’t wait, scroll down to Price Comparisons to see how the numbers really stack up!)

We love earning miles here at Upgraded Points, and you will definitely earn AA miles when you book an AAVacations package.

• You will earn 1,000 AAdvantage award miles each time you book a vacation package
• Earn up to 30,000 bonus AAdvantage miles when you book a featured American Airlines hotel
• You will also earn miles for the flight portion of any package as you normally would

Bonus miles will be awarded to the first traveler’s AAdvantage account. Be sure to include your AAdvantage member number at the time of booking.

Bottom Line: Every booking through American Airlines Vacations earns 1,000 bonus AAdvantage miles. Some packages include hotels that offer up to 30,000 bonus miles. However, you won’t earn miles on any package that is fully or partially paid for using AAdvantage miles.

Don’t forget to use an American Airlines credit card when making the booking, or a rewarding travel card like the Chase Sapphire Preferred ® Card or Chase Sapphire Reserve ®  to earn even more miles for each $1 that you spend on an AA vacation!

American Airlines Vacations offers payment through Uplift, a monthly payment plan service. Uplift breaks your payments into 12 increments.

Don’t get too excited here. While it might be nice to pay for your trip over time, Uplift charges interest, so you end up paying more than you have to .

It’s best to save up ahead of time and book your trip when you can afford to pay for it upfront (then put it on a great travel rewards credit card to get the maximum benefit!)

You can pay for any portion of your vacation package using AAdvantage miles ! Every mile equals 1 cent when booking a vacation package.

All miles must come from 1 account, so unfortunately you can’t pool your points with your travel companions . You also will not earn AAdvantage miles on bookings you pay for with miles.

Once you are logged in to your AAdvantage account, you will see the option to pay for all or part of your vacation package using miles (however, taxes and carrier-imposed fees always have to be paid in cash.)

Use the slider to determine how many miles you want to use. If you choose to pay for part of your package with miles, you must use a minimum of 1,000 miles.

Bottom Line: When redeeming AAdvantage miles for a vacation package, you will get 1 cent per mile in value.

American Airlines Vacations offers support while you are booking and during your trip.

American Airlines Vacations

Now that you know some of the benefits of booking a vacation through American Airlines, you need to know where to find them .

From the American Airlines homepage, click on Plan Travel in the main search bar. Then click on Vacations in the drop-down menu. Or you can go directly to aavacations.com .

Vacation packages can be booked over the phone, but they could include a fee of $35 per person.

From the American Airlines Vacations homepage, you will notice a search box in the middle of the page. Here you can search for a vacation package using any combination of flight, hotel, and/or car rental.

After you input your destination and dates of travel, click on Search . Your search results will be front and center with basic filtering options to the left.

The first thing you might notice is that there are a few different prices listed.

• The first price is the price per person
• The second price is the total for everyone in your party, including taxes and fees but excluding any resort charges
• The third price is the monthly payment if you choose to finance your purchase with Uplift (scroll down for more information on this)
• The last price is the amount you are saving by booking a package (This number never seems to quite match up to the actual savings — I would ignore this and calculate the savings yourself)

Under the hotel information, you will be able to see additional information like any resort fees or extra discounts being offered.

The price you see is for a base level package. If you choose a different room, flight, or car type your price could increase .

Each time you have multiple options, you will be able to see if the price is higher for each selection. If a price says +$0.00, then that option is included in your quote.

Once you choose the first part of your package (hotel, flight, or car), you will be guided through to select the other parts.

Don’t forget to pay attention to the price. See how these 2 flights have different package prices: the first flight is included in the base package price, but the second flight increases the cost of the package .

Right before completing your purchase, you will have the opportunity to add something you missed, like a car rental or activities for your trip.

If you scroll down just a bit when you get to your trip summary page, you will see a list of available activities for your destination. Scroll through the activities or use the filter options on the left side of the screen.

Most activities are priced per person , and some will have a minimum number of people required to book.

Once you have all portions of your vacation package to your liking, click on the blue Continue button to proceed to the payment section.

The price you are paying will include taxes and fees, but will not include things like resort fees, checked baggage fees , or hotel parking fees .

If you have an American Airlines Vacations   promo code , enter it on this payment page.

You will also be asked if you would like to add insurance to your package cost.

If you are using a credit card that has an insurance benefit, there might not be any need for extra insurance. I use the Chase Sapphire Reserve card  for all of my travel purchases for its great points-earning potential, plus the insurance that comes with the card.

Hot Tip: Purchasing extra vacation insurance might not be necessary if you are using a good travel rewards credit card. Look for one that offers various kinds of insurance, such as trip delay, lost baggage, and travel accident . Check out our guide to credit card insurance to find the card that works best for you.

You can purchase an American Airlines Vacation package using any of the following payment methods :

• Credit card
• American Airlines travel voucher — can be used toward the flight portion of your trip only. To redeem a travel voucher, call 1-800-489-4810 (be sure to request that the phone booking fee be waived)
• American Airlines gift certificate
• AAdvantage miles (must be logged in to see this option)
• Uplift (monthly payment plan)

Do you want to get away but aren’t sure where to go? Then head to the Destinations section of aavacations.com for some inspiration.

You will see some featured locations, as well as a clickable list of all regions toward the bottom of the page.

Click on any destination to see some sample prices as well as prices from your home airport. Just input your origin city in the search box.

Remember that the prices you see will be per person . You will then be able to continue through your search as you normally would.

American Airlines Vacations Deals and Promo Codes

If you are looking for a great deal, check out the Deals tab in the main menu. This is where you will find packages offering lots of extra miles or discounts, and sometimes even promo codes. There are also other sites that publish promo codes.

If you scroll down a little bit on the Deals page, you will see a section titled Bonus Miles . This is where you want to look for those amazing deals offering lots and lots of bonus American Airlines miles!

Of course, it helps to have some flexibility since these deals have specific terms — but if one of these deals works for you, jump on it. Who wouldn’t love earning an extra 10,000 or more bonus miles just for going on vacation!

Here are a few important things to remember when booking a package offering bonus miles:

• If you want to earn these bonus miles, do not use any AAdvantage miles to pay for your trip. Bonus miles will NOT be awarded on any package where miles were used toward the purchase of the trip.
• Bonus miles are awarded to the account of the first traveler on the reservation.
• Pay attention to the offer’s dates and details. You will have to book and complete your trip by a specified date to earn bonus miles.

Hot Tip: If your package comes with a significant amount of bonus miles, do not pay for any portion of the package with miles. You must pay for the entire amount of your package using cash/credit card in order to earn bonus miles.

Right under the Bonus Miles section you will find some additional hotel specials being offered. These offers can be anything from a free round of golf, a free night, or an extra percentage off the price.

If you click on the “Book By” link, you will be able to see all the terms of the offer.

Once you are on the offer details page, be sure to pay attention to the terms and booking requirements. There will also be a link to book your reservation. Be careful though, because there might be links to book other hotels as well .

For example, this offer is for up to 57% off at the Iberostar Cancun Star Prestige. However, when you scroll down to book, ALL of the Iberostar hotels are listed — not just the one offering the discount.

If you click on Hotels in the main menu, you’ll be taken to a page that lets you search by hotel brand.

There are some featured brands at the top of the page, but if you scroll down you can see all the brands (plus a few individual hotels you can search for).

You will find popular hotels and brands like:

• Beaches Resorts
• Hard Rock Hotels
• Hyatt Zilara
• MGM Resorts
• RIU Hotels and Resorts
• Sandals Resorts
• Walt Disney World

You can click on any of the hotel links, then search for availability on your travel dates. Continue to book as you normally would.

Hot Tip: If you are booking a chain hotel that offers a loyalty program like Hyatt, Marriott, or Hilton, keep in mind that you might not earn loyalty points when booking through American Airlines. Also, any elite status you have might not be recognized. If you are loyal to a brand and concerned about your hotel loyalty points and status, it’s usually best to book directly.

The Vacation Types section of the website is designed to help you choose a vacation based on the type of trip you are looking for:

• All-inclusive
• Adults only
• Elevated amenities

This can be a helpful section when you know what kind of trip you’re interested in but aren’t sure about a location or specific hotel.

After selecting a vacation type, you will have a short list of results. Once you have made your choice, you can click on the hotel link for more information and to check availability for your travel dates. You only need to input your departure city and dates, and the correct airport will be automatically added.

How to Change or Cancel an American Airlines Vacation

If you need to cancel your American Airlines vacation package, call 1-800-489-4810. Unfortunately, there will be fees associated with this, and some or all of your trip costs may be nonrefundable .

If you are in a situation where there is a greater chance you would need to cancel your trip, you might consider purchasing a waiver to help out with the fees.

Here’s where it gets complicated. I found 2 types of waivers on the AAVacations site: Cancellation and Change Waiver and the Pre-Departure Protection Waiver. However, you only have the opportunity to purchase the Pre-Departure waiver.

I called American Airlines Vacations to clarify, and they couldn’t. The representative I spoke to told me they were the same thing, even though they differ online.

The Cancellation and Change Waiver is an insurance policy you can purchase to cover your trip in the following situations:

• Cancellation for any reason up until your scheduled departure time
• Revision fees associated with changing your itinerary

Unfortunately, some hotels and airfares remain non-refundable even when this waiver has been purchased . Any activities you have booked with your package are also nonrefundable.

Another thing to note is that if 1 person buys a Cancellation and Change Waiver policy, every traveler on the same reference number will need to purchase one as well.

This type of insurance offers fee waivers if your trip is changed prior to departure, or if name changes are made to a package at least 15 days prior to departure.

However, there could still be other fees associated with changing your package — and again, some portions will remain non-changeable even if this waiver is purchased.

The Pre-Departure and Protection Waiver cost varies, but most plans I saw were  $69-$89 per person .

Bottom Line: Overall I am unimpressed with the insurance options offered by American Airlines Vacations. The policies don’t offer much protection and come with lots of limitations. While some situations might make extra insurance a good option, most travelers will be just fine with the insurance that comes with their credit card .

So, let’s get to the good stuff — can American Airlines Vacation packages save you money ?

For my first example, I priced out a week-long stay at The Buccaneer in St. Croix and round-trip airfare from Atlanta for 2 people. All prices are for the same room category, flights, and dates.

As you can see, booking the package from American Airlines saves $168.14 over booking the flight and hotel separately , and even more over booking the same package through the hotel or Expedia.

Expedia did offer a package that included the same hotel with a different flight for $4,185.98. However, the flights were terrible with multiple stops.

Any packages from Expedia with flights that were comparable were more expensive. So, I would consider this a win for American Airlines Vacations .

Here’s another one. For this example I priced out a week-long stay at the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort & Spa in Hawaii and round-trip airfare from Seattle for 2 people. Again, the prices are for the same room category, flights, and dates.

American Airlines Vacations is the winner again in this example. Booking through American saves $386.82 over booking the hotel and flights separately . It even saves money over booking a similar itinerary via Expedia with cheaper flights.

I always suggest pricing out a vacation package to make sure you are actually saving money. However, it appears to be a good bet that you will get a deal with an American Airlines vacation package.

In addition to flights, you can book an entire vacation package through American Airlines consisting of flights, hotel, rental car and even activities.

American Airlines Vacations offers an easy-to-use website and low prices on packages. In everything I priced out, the package deal always saved money over booking a flight and hotel separately.

So the next time you are ready to book a vacation, consider checking out American Airlines Vacations — you might be able to get a great deal!

Some travelers book their airline tickets separately, and then plan out the rest of their trip details and reservations later. But booking a vacation package is an easy way to get all the planning done early on. For American Airlines fans, booking American Airlines vacation packages is a good way to bundle their trip needs.

Doing this can also make it possible to book a more affordable vacation. Here’s what you need to know about American Airlines vacation packages.

American Airlines vacation packages include two or more components, such as flights, hotel stays and car rentals.

Travelers can piece together a vacation based on their trip needs. Vacation package reservations can be made at AAVacations.com .

Yes, you’ll earn AAdvantage miles when booking American Airlines vacation packages. You’ll earn 1,000 AAdvantage miles for every vacation package booking that is made online, as long as you provide your AAdvantage number at the time of booking. You have a chance to earn additional bonus miles by booking featured hotels.

If you book a featured hotel, you’ll earn an extra 30,000 AAdvantage miles. You’ll also earn additional AAdvantage miles for the flights that are booked within your package. American Airlines also advertises bonus miles deals where you can earn extra bonus miles when booking a qualifying vacation package. These deals change over time.

If you want to maximize your AAdvantage miles earning potential and are flexible on the destination that you want to visit, check out the current bonus miles offers for trip inspiration.

While you can choose to book vacation packages through another airline or a travel booking website, booking with American Airlines comes with benefits.

For instance, American Airlines gives travelers access to private, unpublished rates on flights and hotels that are not available when booked separately. Additionally, travelers will earn 1,000 bonus AAdvantage miles for every vacation on top of flight miles.

Yes, you can save money by booking American Airlines vacation packages. For starters, access to unpublished rates could result in a better deal than if you were to book a flight or hotel separately. If you’re not sure if you’re getting a good deal, you can always compare the reservation prices individually to the total price that the American Airlines vacation package is offering.

Example trip: An American Airlines vacation package to Florida from Las Vegas

A five-night trip for two from Las Vegas to Florida with a stay at AC Hotel By Marriott Miami Dadeland in October 2022 costs $1,265 when booked through AAVacations.com and $1,955 when booked separately — a meaningful difference of $690.

Now, we look at the individual trip component costs. The same nonstop flights for two to Miami cost $674.

The cost for a five-night stay at AC Hotel Miami Dadeland for the same dates and room type is $1,281.

If you add up the flight and hotel individually, you’d spend $1,955, which is $690 more expensive than the package price of $1,265. That's a pretty big savings, and you’d earn AAdvantage miles on top of it.

When you compare pricing, be sure to look at all booking terms and conditions and make sure that you’re comparing the same offerings.

Yes. You can pay for your trip with AAdvantage miles, so long as the miles come from a single AAdvantage account. A minimum of 1,000 miles is required to apply miles to the purchase of a vacation package.

It’s important to note that when using miles as a form of payment, AAdvantage members will not be eligible to accrue mileage credit in the same reservation.

In many cases, American Airlines vacations are not refundable for the full amount. There are cancellation penalties in place depending on when you cancel and whether you paid for pre-departure protection, which is offered when you book a vacation package. Take a look to understand what to expect.

For all vacation packages without pre-departure protection:

For vacation packages with pre-departure protection for non-holiday travel periods:

For vacation packages with pre-departure protection for holiday travel periods:

American Airlines’ holiday travel periods include the Monday before through the Monday after Thanksgiving Day, plus Dec. 20 through Jan. 3.

Note: Cancellations for hotel packages with no air component must be requested by 10:29 PM (CST) the day before check-in for pre-departure protection to be valid. After 10:29 PM the day before check-in, the full package becomes nonrefundable.

If you want to have more flexibility in case you need to cancel your trip, it’s a smart idea to invest in pre-departure protection via travel insurance . This extra protection can give you more confidence when booking American Airlines vacation packages.

American Airlines Vacations packages simplify the trip booking process. Before finalizing your booking:

Compare the price of a potential vacation package to that of each trip element’s cost to make sure you’re getting a good deal.

Be sure to enter your AAdvantage membership details so you can maximize your miles earning potential.

Check out current bonus miles deals to earn more miles on your booking.

Consider investing in pre-departure protection for added flexibility.

The complete guide to booking all-inclusive hotels with American Airlines Vacations

Update : Some offers mentioned below are no longer available. View the current offers here .

These days, all-inclusive resorts are popular with travelers looking for a relaxing getaway from work-from-home life. There are plenty of different ways to book one of these resorts. You can use points and miles to cover a package , book independently by piecing together your own itinerary or use an airline vacation portal. The latter can be a convenient booking method since you can bundle your resort with flights (and a rental car , if needed).

There are also some benefits to booking through an airline vacation portal if you're loyal to a single airline. For example, when you book all-inclusive packages with American Airlines Vacations, you can take advantage of discount codes and earn bonus AAdvantage miles on each booking.

Today, I'll dive deep into booking all-inclusive resort stays with American Airlines Vacations. I'll start by giving you an overview of American Airlines Vacations and discussing the pros and cons of using it to book all-inclusive stays. Then, I'll round out the article with a look at how to actually book these stays.

An overview of American Airlines Vacations

American Airlines Vacations is American's vacation booking portal. You can use it to bundle together flights, hotels and rental cars in any combination. This makes it easier to book your travel and get a single bill for everything you need for a great vacation at an all-inclusive resort.

That said, there are a few things you should consider when booking an all-inclusive with AA Vacations. For example, you'll earn bonus American Airlines miles, but you may not earn hotel elite qualifying nights.

Pros of booking all-inclusive stays with American Airlines Vacations

There are many upsides of booking all-inclusive stays through AA Vacations — here's a look at the ones worth noting:

You may get a better deal on airfare and hotel stays

AA Vacations can save you money on your all-inclusive hotel booking. The portal will often give you a substantial discount on airfare with the bundle, which can significantly reduce the overall cost of your trip.

For example, I priced out a six-night vacation package for two in Cancun this August. The packages includes flights originating in Chicago and a 7-night stay at Live Aqua Beach Resort Cancún . The total price for two people is $3,774.05.

When booked separately, the same flights cost $1,006 while the hotel stay costs $3,922, bringing the total to $4,928. You'll save over $1,000 by booking with AA Vacations and it's possible to bring the price down even more with limited-time promotions.

There are plenty of ongoing promotions

American Airlines offers great discounts and other promotions on the AA Vacations portal. Sometimes these are general discounts on all bookings. Other times they apply to a select hotel group. These promotions are in addition to the bonus American miles you earn by booking with AA Vacations.

You can see all promotions on the AA Vacations website. Currently, American is offering up to $250 off all bookings when you use promo code WELCOME75 or WELCOME250. The WELCOME75 code saves $75 on all 3-night bookings or longer that cost at least $750.

The WELCOME250 code saves $250 on all bookings of four nights or longer that cost at least $2,500. The promotion ends on June 9, 2021.

Keep an eye on the AA Vacations deals page for more discounts on all-inclusive resort stays. Depending on what you book, it could bring incredible savings you won't find elsewhere.

Also, note that all American elites were gifted up to $400 in AA Vacations credit during the height of the pandemic. This credit is good through Dec. 20, 2021, so make sure to use it before it expires.

You'll earn bonus American miles on all your bookings

You'll earn 1,000 bonus American Airlines AAdvantage miles on all AA Vacation bookings. Plus, you can earn up to 30,000 additional bonus miles when you book with featured hotels. These are noted in the search results on the AA Vacations website.

These miles can help you offset the total cost of your booking and are a nice bonus, especially when booking independent properties that wouldn't otherwise award hotel points. TPG values AAdvantage miles at 1.4 cents per point. This means you'll always get at least $14 worth of miles on top of the miles you earn when flying American.

You may be booked into a "Special Fare"

American often books AA Vacations airfare into what the carrier calls a Special Fare . What makes these fares so interesting is that they earn redeemable miles and Elite Qualifying Dollars (EQDs) based on distance flown, not how much you spend.

This may result in you earning more miles and EQDs than if you were to book the airfare standalone. Special Fares are noted in AA Vacations with an asterisk when selecting flights for your vacation package. Click the View Details button underneath your flight of choice and look for your booking class. If there's an asterisk next to it, it's a Special Fare.

Special Fares earn rewards based on the following chart:

In the example above, a round-trip flight from Chicago-O'Hare (ORD) to San Jose del Cabo (SJD) via Phoenix (PHX) would earn 75% redeemable miles, 100% Elite Qualifying Miles (EQM) and 15% Elite Qualifying Dollars (EQD) per mile flown.

The round-trip mileage is 4,323 miles, so you'd earn 3,242 redeemable miles, 4,323 EQM and $648 EQD toward American elite status .

If the airfare portion of this itinerary costs $500 per person before taxes, each member — without elite status — would earn 2,500 miles, $500 EQD and the same 4,323 EQM on a round-trip ticket. Do the math and see if a Special Fare works better for your mileage situation.

You can pay with American miles (but it's not a great deal)

You can pay for AA Vacation packages with your AAdvantage miles, but only at a value of 1.05 cents per point. I recommend avoiding this, as TPG values American miles at 1.4 cents per point. It's possible to get far more value if you redeem for high-end partner awards (think Cathay Pacific first class ) or long-haul flights in American business class of Flagship first .

Cons of booking all-inclusive stays with American Airlines Vacations

Of course, not all is great. There are a couple of downsides to booking with AA Vacations.

You may not earn hotel points on your stays

Generally, you'll only earn hotel points and elite status credit when you book directly with the hotel group. Likewise, you usually can't use your hotel elite status benefits when booking with a third party. This includes bookings made with AA Vacations, so consider if the savings are worth not having these benefits at hand.

Bundling can give you less flexibility

Booking all your travel in one place may give you less flexibility to make changes or curate your own experience. So, consider whether or not you want to build out your own trip or have the simplicity of a single booking. Plus, you may want to skip AA Vacations if airfare is cheaper on another airline.

Thankfully, you can book hotel stays shorter than your round-trip flights if you want to visit multiple destinations or otherwise build out a larger itinerary.

How to book all-inclusive stays with American Airlines Vacations

One of the best parts of booking an all-inclusive resort with AA Vacations is how simple it is to book. Here's a quick overview of how to do it, start to finish.

Start by heading to the AA Vacations website. Enter your itinerary in the search box at the center of the screen and click the blue Search button at the center of the screen.

You'll be presented with all available hotel and resort options. To only see all-inclusive properties, scroll down until you see the "Property Type" header on the left-hand side of the screen and select the "All inclusive resort" option.

Look around the page until you find the property you'd like to book. All prices listed are for flights, hotels and rental cars (if you selected one). Click the "Choose this deal" button to choose a property to book.

You'll now be prompted to select a room type. Pick the one that best fits your needs.

Now, pick the flights you'd like to book. Again, you may want to check if you're booking a Special Fare by clicking the View Details button.

You can check out and pay for your booking by following the on-screen prompts.

Redeeming AAdvantage miles for American Vacations

You can redeem AAdvantage miles for AA Vacations packages. Unfortunately, this doesn't yield a great value. All packages can be redeemed at a set value of 1.05 cents per point, so a $1,500 vacation package costs 142,857 points. Again, this is far lower than the redemption value you'd get on most flights, especially if you're booking premium cabins.

You'll see the miles cost for a booking on the check-out screen on the AA Vacations website. You can use the slider at the bottom of the screen to choose how many miles you'd like to apply to your reservation. You can use as little as 1,000 miles toward a reservation.

The best credit cards for American Airlines Vacations

Make sure to pay for vacation packages with a credit card that earns bonus points on travel. If you can, I recommend going with a card in the Chase Sapphire family. These cards earn bonus Chase Ultimate Rewards points on all travel that can transfer to numerous travel partners, including World of Hyatt and United MileagePlus .

They also come with several types of travel protections that could come in handy. Here's a look at current offers:

• Chase Sapphire Preferred Card – Earn 60,000 bonus points after you spend $4,000 on purchases in the first three months from account opening.
• Chase Sapphire Reserve – Earn 60,000 bonus points after you spend $4,000 on purchases in the first three months from account opening.

Bottom line

Booking all-inclusive resorts through AA Vacations can be a good way to simplify and save on your all-inclusive resort bookings. As discussed, always run the numbers and see if it makes sense for your specific vacation. Also, keep an eye out for promotions and bonus miles deals that sweeten the deal even further.
