  The potential bonus is substantial, to be sure. The question is: How achievable is it?
  
  For most AAdvantage members, completing the required minimum transactions with all 10 partners will be a stretch. Some, like AAdvantage dining or purchases through the AAdvantage shopping portal, are easy. But doing business with LifeLock or Sprint requires a commitment that goes way beyond normal bounds.
