Default Applying to American Airlines

I am looking to fill out an application for AA. I was able to create an account using this web page (https://aa.pilotcredentials.com/index.php). I am uncertain if this is the correct web page because Pilot Credentials is asking for a subscription to fill out the application (https://global.pilotcredentials.com/). Just looking for clarification on which one to fill out or should I fill out both?

You don't need to subscribe to global. Just the AA page will do. If you are wanting to apply to other airlines that use "pilot credential" as well, then I would recommend subscribing and letting the global "push" your app to the AA site.

Maybe it's just me, but I found subscribing to Global to be a waste of money. I thought it would be great to put the info in one spot, and then send it out wherever I needed it. I found, when I did that, that my info in the apps was all out of place, missing, had formatting errors, etc. It took more time to go through my apps with a fine-toothed comb to spot/fix the errors than if I had just entered everything from scratch. My $.02.

Agreed.

Also, each company has specific fields so you are going to have to go to the individual airline pilot credential page anyway. The parts that do transfer, you can copy/paste once you get it done for the first airline. Slightly painful, but worth the effort to save money in my opinion.
