United introduced “Mile Playâ€, a new way to earn miles with United MileagePlus® back in 2017, and the promotion appears frequently from the time to time.
As I was browsing my United app, it looks like the offer is back again for targeted accounts, allowing select members to earn bonus miles by completing tasks between now and January 31, 2020.
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.
My offer allows me to earn a total of 23,000 bonus miles if I book and take 5 trips with a $250 minimum purchased fare during the promotional period.
I checked eligibility for everyone in my household, and I was the only one eligible for MilePlay this time around.
Bottom Line
My offer is pretty attractive considering that I do have a lot of United travel in the pipeline between now and the end of January, and it’s nice way to earn bonus miles on flights I will be taking anyway.
Were you targeted? If so, what was your offer?
I got 2 trips ($250) = 16,000 miles
Co-worker 2 trips ($275) = 22,000 miles
I got 1 trip $300 spend for 12k miles by Jan 2020
That’s a great offer!
My MilePlay:
4 trips ($400) = 53,000 miles
Not bad!!
One trip ($350) = 14k miles
Great offer!
I find these offers difficult to take up. Usually I have booked flights a month out, so already half the time is already spoken for. That leaves booking 3 nights for the second month.
Same… I’ve got my flights book up through March already…
Homee don’t play that! ;- ]
Like DoC says, they usually want you to fly more than you want…
