buying Bonus miles on AA

Is it worth buying AA150k with 100k bonus Miles for $4300 to use for a Free business ticket ? the Price of a Business ticket for our trip is well over $7,000k each, seems like a fair option?

Seems like a good deal. Remember – it’s not free, you’re spending $4300 instead of $7000 each.

AA allows award holds, and buying their miles posts pretty much instantly. Find the space you need, hold the award, then buy the miles and ticket your reservation.
