Mileage ideas for Non-US residents greatly appreciated

I would like to begin a strand where everyone can share mileage ideas that are of use to people who live outside of the United States. God Bless America - what a wonderful place where liberty and justice is for all - except AIRMILES! Here are my ideas (not many)

1) MCI Global Worldcom calling card 5,000 miles http://www.mci.com

2) American Express (pretty well everywhere and offers mileage conversion for every dollar charged) www.americanexpress.com

3)500 free miles when you sign up at www.milesmall.com (Marriott, Alaska AL and others)

4) various point and click rackets (referral davistev or [email protected])


1500 free miles at http://www.milesource.com/join.php3?referrer=davistev http://www.multikredits.com userid is davistev

www.webmiles.com
www.trocamania.com
www.mypoints.com

5) ? anymore out there that non-US residents can access.

There is another site called http://www.FreeAirMiles.com which at this time is having membership registration and mile and vacation giveaway contests.

Expected launch date is May 15, 2000. At that time, members can earn miles while surfing the web. They will allow members to earn up to 500 miles per day. You can "bank" the miles in your FreeAir account to be redeemed for frequent flyer miles on their participating airlines; or cash in the miles for a round trip ticket that they will purchase for you (this will eliminate those nasty blackout dates associated with frequent flyer redemptions).

Anxiously waiting for 5/15/00, I am

p.s. if you sign-up with FreeAirMiles.com please use my referral ID "viday".

www.FreeAirMiles.com will be a great resource to earn miles when they launch, especially for non-U.S. residents. Their is no other website out there doing what they plan to do (i.e. no purchase necessary nor downloads nor viewbars).

The idea of them buying the roundtrip ticket for you is awesome. I can't wait.
