In December, United introduced “Mile Playâ€, a new way to earn miles with United MileagePlus®.
I logged into my United app recently, and it looks like the offer is back again for targeted accounts, allowing select members to earn bonus miles by completing tasks between now and May 13, 2018.
As you can imagine, the offers vary greatly, ranging from just a few thousand bonus miles to the potential to accumulate massive amounts by flying.
Keep in mind that you’ll have to first register for the promotion, and only airfare purchased after the time you register will count towards the promotion. You can check to see if your account was targeted and register here.
I checked eligibility for everyone in my household, and only my account was targeted this time around.
My offer allows me to earn a total of 8,000 bonus miles if I book and fly to/from EWR just one time. This is an absolute no-brainer and a very generous surprise because EWR is my home airport and there’s no cabin or fare minimum I must meet in order to qualify.
Bottom Line
Overall, I think this is a nice surprise if you had some United travel in the pipeline over the next few weeks.
Were you targeted? If so, what was your offer?
mine was targeted for a pitiful 800 miles. I mean, really. . .
Mine was targeted 1600 miles in Economy Plus… ouch!
I have been offered 35 miles
