Enjoy 500 American Airlines AAdvantage Bonus Miles, a Free Rental Day and 25% Savings With National!
Expiration Date – December 31, 2016
Rent a Compact through Full-Size car for a minimum of three consecutive days and maximum five days that includes a Saturday night at any participating National location in the US and Canada to save up to 25% off the base rate, earn 500 AAdvantage miles and enjoy one free weekend day on rentals through December 31, 2016!
Reserve online, include the coupon code NF3361JDP and input your AAdvantage number at the time of reservation or rental.
We estimate each American AAdvantage rewards mile is worth 2 cents per mile. See our program valuation TIP for our rationale on how we determine this value.
With this AAdvantage offer you will earn 500 bonus miles for each qualified rental, which is worth about $10. But you will also enjoy a free weekend rental day (base rate only), which can be quite valuable (easily $40 or more).
And American has a deal for everyone:
- If you are only renting for two days or not over a weekend, check out this promotion for 1,000 bonus American Airlines miles (expires December 31, 2015)
- If you are only renting for one day, check out this promotion for quadruple American Airlines miles (expires December 31, 2016)
We encourage you to sign up for National’s Emerald Club because even if you don’t rent from National often it’s always great to save time and money at the rental car counter and their Emerald Aisle service is one of the best.
To learn more about the Emerald Club program and when it makes sense to choose National credits toward free rental days instead of participating in a hotel or airline partner bonus, see our great Tip on the topic! There we also explain why we value the National Emerald Club credit you earn for each paid rental day at $4.30. And each credit becomes more valuable as you move up to Elite and Executive Elite status in the Emerald Club.
The Wrap-Up:
If you rent from National often, it is generally a more lucrative choice to elect to earn Emerald Club credits towards free rental days. But, if you are more likely to shop around for the best rental car price and your choice of rental car company varies, we suggest you elect to earn American AAdvantage miles with one of the three bonus options instead of Emerald Club credits.
