It is a tiered bonus and is structured as pictured below:
If you were to max out the promo, it would cost you a total of $4,311 for 200,000 AA miles. That pegs the value per mile 2.15 cents per mile. That is far from a great deal but if you are looking at a particular award that would cost a lot more and you don’t mind spend the cash for the miles, it could work.
They start the bonus at 20,000 miles so you are not really benefiting much if you are just trying to add a few thousand to top up.
