American Airlines partners with Airlink and the American Red Cross to support Hurricane Helene relief efforts

In response to the widespread devastation caused by Hurricane Helene, American Airlines is donating 10 million AAdvantage miles to Airlink, a nonprofit humanitarian organization that brings critical aid to communities in crisis. These miles will help Airlink connect emergency responders and relief workers to the most urgent need.

American has also partnered with the American Red Cross to help those impacted by Hurricane Helene. To support relief efforts, please visit redcross.org/aa to make a donation. Customers who donate through American’s dedicated Red Cross website will earn AAdvantage® bonus miles as a token of appreciation for their generosity.

"We are proud to join forces with Airlink and the Red Cross to deliver critical aid to those affected by Hurricane Helene," said Ron DeFeo, American’s Chief Marketing and Communications Officer. "At American Airlines, it is our purpose to care for people on life’s journey, and we are committed to helping communities in times of need."

Earlier this year, American was named a Mission Leader by the American Red Cross, joining an elite group of the most generous donors giving more than $3 million annually to help alleviate suffering in the face of emergencies. Additionally, American has been a member of the Annual Disaster Giving Program — a group of forward-thinking donors who provide support in advance of disasters — since 2014.
