The oneworld® alliance prides itself on the quality of our member airlines – both in terms of their customer service and their corporate standing.oneworld enables its member airlines to offer services beyond what any individual carrier can provide by itself or one-on-one with another partner.
No matter which oneworld airline’s frequent flyer programme you belong to you will find that the
rewards and privileges of membership have been greatly enhanced.
* American Airlines AAdvantage and British Airways Executive Club members can earn and redeem miles, and earn tier status credit, on all eligible flights except:

AAdvantage miles and top tier status credit may be earned though miles may not be redeemed on all American Airlines codeshare services operated by British Airways when the booking is made under the AA code.
