Cap Splitter

AA Hotels caps loyalty earnings per reservation. A single long stay can leave thousands of LP on the table. Cap Splitter shows you the optimal way to structure your booking — same hotel, same nights, same cash, more loyalty points.

How it works

Each AA Hotels reservation has its own earning cap. Book seven nights as one stay and you'll likely hit the cap and stop earning halfway through. Split the same trip into two or three separate reservations and each one earns up to the cap independently.

Caps used in this calculation: 10,000 LP per night (verified empirically from EliteForCheap snapshot data and public sources) and a working assumption of 15,000 LP per reservation. These caps apply to the elevated-miles portion of your stay. Card-spend miles (price × your card multiplier) accrue separately and are not capped here. Cap Splitter recommends real reservations you would actually take — whether you complete every night is up to you.
