The Offer

Direct link to offer

  • United is offering bonus miles under their Mile Play promotion when you complete certain requirements before May 13th, 2018. Everybody receives a different offer based on their flying history. Some sample offers:
    • Book and take two trips by May 13th, 2018 and get 11,000 bonus miles
    • Unfortunately, the account number you entered is not eligible for this offer.

The Fine Print

  • Flights must be completed by May 13th, 2018

Our Verdict

They have offered a similar promotion in the past, I guess this will be semi recurring. Might make sense to only ‘view offer’ when you know you have flights coming up in the hopes of getting targeted when you’ll actually be able to complete any offers you receive. Generally they structure the deals so it will require more flights than you’d normally complete within that time frame.

  • my offer was initially: spend $150 to receive 4500, or spend $400 to receive 9900miles.... AFTER i reached this, it was extended to, spend $800 to receive 17,000 additional miles.... Hitting that target this Friday :)

  • FYI Charles, part of the page still says "Flights must be completed by March 11th, 2018"

    Book and take a trip 1 time by
    May 13, 2018
    to get 4,500 bonus award miles.

    *Each purchased fare must be a minimum of $225 to qualify

  • Does anyone know if two similar tasks can be done at once? My offer is to 1) Book and take a trip 2) Purchase and fly in Economy Plus. If I purchase an economy plus seat I have obviously booked a trip. I can't see anything in the text that indicates you can't accomplish both at once. If you click on the link you have a "book now" button next to each, but I assume you don't actually have to book that way.

    • Correct, you don't have to book your trips through the "book now" button. In the previous promo, I did my bookings via my corporate travel system, and I got the award miles.

  • My offer:
    Book and take a trip in a premium cabin 2 times by May 13, 2018 to get 93,000 bonus award miles. 45 days left.

    Previously it was 90,000 bonus miles after flying 2 times by March 11. I thought I won't be able to meet it anyways but they extended/upgraded it for me after the previous one expired.

  • My promo is to book and take a trip 2 times by May 13, 2018 to get 22,000 bonus award miles. Each purchased fare must be a minimum of $275 to qualify. No cabin is specified. Luckily, I have two business trips coming up within the deadline for which I haven't bought the tickets yet. I will be able to fulfill them by May 10th.

    In the previous promo, I picked up 12,000 miles in February for 2 trips, also $275 minimum each.

  • Book and take a trip* earn 4,800 bonus miles
    Dine with MilagePlus Dining earn 300 bonus miles
    Complete all activities earn 5,000 more bonus miles

    *fare must be minimum of $250 to qualify.

  • Book and take a trip in a premium cabin - Spend $600 for 1000 points.

    Dine with MileagePlus Dining - 400 points

    Bonus of 2400 points if both are completed... lol

  • Book and Take a Trip* ($225+ base fare) - 2700 miles
    Shop through MileagePlus Shopping - 200 miles
    Complete both - 6600 miles

    9.5k total, not bad. If I book with points through the Chase Travel Portal, do you think that will count as a revenue flight towards this promotion? Do y'all have a PR contact who can confirm that?

  • purchase and take 2 trips receive 11k bonus miles does that include if i book for me and someone else on the same reservation? or if i book 2 other people using my mileage plus account ?
