Despite being shorter than some domestic routes, flights to the Caribbean, Mexico and Central America can be expensive. In addition to the extra taxes and fees, many airlines charge higher award rates for these routes.<\/p>\n

But you can sometimes book cheap flights to the Caribbean, Mexico and Central America with American Airlines. Following the steps below, you might find awards to these regions for relatively few American Airlines miles<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Why it\u2019s special<\/h2>\n

American Airlines AAdvantage<\/a> will soon offer fully dynamic mileage awards<\/a> and introduce a simplified award chart for travel on its flights. But, for now, you can still book MileSAAver off-peak awards<\/a> to select regions. These awards let you save on economy awards between certain regions during select travel periods.<\/p>\n

MileSAAver awards<\/a> to the Caribbean, Mexico and Central America typically cost 15,000 AAdvantage miles each way in economy but are available for just 12,500 miles on off-peak dates.<\/p>\n
