Anyone know how long before the Service Ctr has these on record or when they go active? I haven't yet received the email and when I called last night they had no record of this offer.

I've never done one of these before. Does this mean that I could fly a shuttle route (PHL-BOS) roundtrip and get 15,000 miles? Is this available regardless of the fare?</font>
This is for redeeming miles, not earning miles.

I've never done one of these before. Is this available for any route, including shuttles? Do they give the miles for all fares, no matter how reduced?
Basically, I'm wondering if a cheapo PHL-BOS-PHL would net me 15,000 miles?

This is an award, not an accrual.

No knowledge or no record? (Where's the graphic for smile-with-one-raised-eyebrow?!)

I'm guessing they might not announce any this month. It's already the 12th and there's nothing under the next few numbers (usz943, -944, -945...-961).

I wish they weren't so inconsistent about sending out e-mail statements.... mine come maybe 1 1/2 weeks after someone posts cities on here. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif I can't imagine there's that much delay in sending out an e-mail statement with 0 activity. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/tongue.gif
P.S. Flew US DCA--LAX this past weekend on LatinPass miles... 25k. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif Almost chose to try National-- whew! Good thing I didn't.
But, I flew the A321 for the first time. Like an A320 that keeps going.......

1. How do you find these things? I can't seem to conjure it up by drilling down from the home page. Is it an e-statement user only mailing?
2. Looks like you have to start/originate at IAH or BOS. True?

Click the link posted above. Here it is again: http://www.usairways.com/dividendmiles/offers/usz942.htm
You cannot directly access the page from the US Airways home page.
The specials are listed in the Electronic Statements as an enticement for poeple to opt for electronic over paper. But the good folks here on FT post the info for all. Booking is no problem if you have the code-- the res agent doesn't verify that you receive e-statements.
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">2. Looks like you have to start/originate at IAH or BOS. True?</font>
Not true. Based on the link above: "...travel between the continental U.S. or Canada and Boston, MA or Houston, TX..."
Travel can originate in BOS or IAH, or originate in any US city for travel to BOS or IAH-- as long as US Airways publishes fares for the route. You cannot fly, say, DFW to PIT to IAH because US doesn't publish fares DFW--IAH.
