Making the announcement on its website, the major American airline has said that it plans to join Oneworld next summer. It also said that it would strengthen its partnership with American Airlines, which is also a member of the airline alliance.
As of February 14, travelers are able to redeem Alaska Airlines miles on all American Airline flights. In addition, Alaska Lounge members are able to access American Airlines Admirals Clubs. By spring, Alaska miles can be earned on all American Airlines flights.
