Yesterday, we saw United and Alaska offering their customers 6 miles per dollar at Apple. As they normally do, Apple is directing its portal increases to another airline the next day. Today, it is American Airlines. If you value them more than Alaska or United, today is your day!

With this deal, you can earn 6 American Airline miles per dollar (up from 4 miles per dollar yesterday). Here are the details.

The What to Buy from Apple Today
Unless you really need it right now, I would avoid using this deal as a reason to purchase a new 15″ MacBook Pro (unless you have a custom spec you need). The reason is that since they added Vega graphics as an option back in November, Apple retailers have been having some pretty good sales on their stock of computers without the Vega. So, you would probably do better hunting up one of those (like at retailer B&H).
However, if you wanted to go for a new iPad Pro, those machines are just beasts and they won’t be updated for at least 10 months so it would be a safe buy. There was a great sale on those earlier this month but I don’t think that will happen again for a while. If you want anything else, check Apple retailers as there are some deals you may want to compare against what you would earn with this deal.
Finally, if you want an Apple Watch Series 4, I would definitely buy that direct from Apple through this deal. No one else is having a sale on them yet so that would be a good way to go.
