US Airways Dividend Miles (Pre-FlightFund Merger) - Web site for 2004 partner offers is up

The 2004 offers appear to be loaded online. You can check them out at:

Chairman's Preferred Offers (http://www.usairways.com/dividendmiles/preferredlevels/preferred_offers_04/cp04.htm)
Gold Preferred Offers (http://www.usairways.com/dividendmiles/preferredlevels/preferred_offers_04/gp04.htm)
Silver Preferred Offers (http://www.usairways.com/dividendmiles/preferredlevels/preferred_offers_04/sp04.htm)

The Hyatt offer has been reduced (or enhanced) from 2 stays for 5,000 points to 3 stays with triple divident miles. There is a new Starwood offer coming (I recently got a mysterious *wood gold card, so I suspect that it is related to that). Marriot Vacation Club and Our Lucaya have gone. There may be some subtle differences in the car stuff, I didn't really study it.

Has US Airways always had this? Meaning: Have three separate pages dedicated to a different elite group.

I think this a great idea and some good offers too.

Just curious.

I looked at the three pages, and it seems to me that the offers are exactly the same for CP, GP and SP!

ouster: I believe that they have done this for the past two years at least.

synd: I was interested in that as well. IIRC, the offers last year were almost the same as well.

Am I alone in finding these of little value? With Hyatt, I want the points. The rental car stuff can be duplicated via a ton of publicly available discount codes.

Yes. Big Yawn. Where is our free Hilton Gold Stats offer (wasn't that 2001?)

Maybe they've stopped giving the store away, and offering some low-cost nicities.

Ah, I remember the 10,000 mile bonuses for every third on-line booking. Good days ....

I'm about to do 2 Hyatt stays w/ the first one in Feb.

Hopefully, I can use the 2003 offer and get Plat after 2 stays. It says you need to complete the offer in 3 months.

The text of the offer seems to imply that you have to be a new Hyatt member. Am I misreading that?

No update on Starwood yet.

Today, I got a offer from Starwood. I receive Gold Preferred Guest status if I participate in the airline direct deposit program, and 2000 miles for each of my first three stays. Perhaps this is the Starwood offer that was previously listed as a partner offer on the site. You will see that the only Starwood offer currently listed is for the Westin/Sheraton at Our Lucaya.

That would make some sense. It's basically the same offer AA has had for EXPs and Plats for the last few years.

That said, it used to be such that you could get around it by simply enrolling in the "direct deposit" scheme and calling back and asking if Starwood has changed it--I know I set up a SPG statusless co-worker this way via the AA route. It really makes sense to do so--Starpoints are much better in terms of their redeemable value than the miles that you would end up getting deposited into your FF account.
