[YMMV] Earn 10,000 Delta SkyBonus Points After You Book & Fly

The Offer

• In an e-mail sent out to American Express business cardholders (subject line “<Your Name>, You’ve Got ✉: Some News About Your Card) there is the following offer:
  • Earn 10,000 Delta Skybonus points when your employees fly Delta and partners. Enroll using code OPENAPR17 by 5/15/17 to receive 10,000 bonus points after you book & fly.

The Fine Print

Our Verdict

Skybonus is Delta’s loyalty program for businesses, miles aren’t interchangable with regular Skymiles. Delta is known for cancelling accounts if they are not from a real business (and according to this comment will look for a business website). There is also a separate award chart that can be found here.  If you have a legitimate business then this promotion might be useful, otherwise I’d just give it a miss as you’re unlikely to get any value from it.

It’s unclear if you need to have received the e-mail to be eligible, I don’t see anything in the fine print that states you do but YMMV as always.

Hat tip to /r/churning & reader jwp5123 for fowarding the e-mail
