This offer was originally posted in a thread in the FlyerTalk forum. I wasn’t going to mention it because it’s a targeted offer and I figure that anyone that qualifies has probably already received an email from American, but decided that since some people may have overlooked it in their inbox that I should go ahead and say something.

American and Delta are competing for trans-atlantic passengers in Connecticut, Florida, Massachusetts or Rhode Island. So far they’ve been competing on price and some amazingly low airfares have been available in these markets.

American just escalated the battle and is rolling out Double Elite Qualifying Miles and a big discount:
