American Airlines Elite Status Members Getting New Perks



New Perks for American Airlines Elite Status Members

American Airlines has announced the addition of new privileges for its top customers called PriorityAccess.

AAdvantage elite status members (executive platinum, platinum, gold AAdvantage or Oneworld Alliance emerald, sapphire or ruby), first and business class travelers, AAirpass customers and economy class travelers with full fare tickets will all benefit from the addition of these perks:

- Dedicated check-in lines at every airport American Airlines serves

- Separate PriorityAccess security lanes at the 10 largest airports it services, as well as select others based on TSA permission. The airports with confirmed PriorityAccess lanes are Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago O’hare, Miami, Los Angeles (LAX), New York JFK, New York La Guardia, St. Louis, San Francisco, Boston and San Juan.

- Separate boarding lanes at the gates that allow passengers to bypass general boarding lines

The American Airlines website describes each perk as follows:

PriorityAAccess Check-In
PriorityAAccess customers will enjoy their own dedicated check-in area at the ticket counter with distinctive signage clearly identifying PriorityAAccess lines. In addition, “PriorityAAccess” will be printed on boarding passes, designating travelers as American’s top customers. American will offer PriorityAAccess check-in areas at all of the airports it serves worldwide.

PriorityAAccess Security Screening
Where permitted by airport policy and government security regulations, American will offer exclusive PriorityAAccess security screening lanes. Like the dedicated check-in lines, PriorityAAccess screening lanes will be clearly marked with special signage. Currently, American plans to offer PriorityAAccess screening lanes in its 10 largest airports, as well as in other airports where permitted by the TSA.

PriorityAAccess Boarding Lanes
To further enhance convenience for its top customers,American will offer dual boarding lanes at its gates – one for PriorityAAccess customers and one for general boarding. Customers with PriorityAccess privileges will be invited to board first or board at any time through their exclusive PriorityAAccess lane, which allows them to bypass lines after general boarding has begun.
