US Airways Dividend Miles - New Promo: Up to 50% more miles when you share in July‏

It's July 1 so don't despair the June promo is over, now the sharing promo is here.

Enjoy.

Share a little…give a lot! When you share your miles with another member in July, they’ll receive up to 50% more miles. Here’s how it works:

ShareGive
1 – 9,000 miles10% bonus
10,000 – 19,000 miles20% bonus
20,000 – 29,000 miles30% bonus
30,000 – 39,000 miles 40% bonus
40,000 – 50,000 miles 50% bonus

Offer valid for your FIRST Share transaction (purchaser or recipient) made between July 1, 2012 00:00:01 AM PT and July 31, 2012 23:59:59 PM PT. This bonus is only applicable for Share Miles and the offer does not apply to Buy or Gift Miles transactions. Bonus amounts will be awarded upon completion of the transaction. Bonus miles will be awarded to the recipient of the Share. Offer is subject to change. Offer cannot be combined with any other offer. Only purchases made online are eligible.

Miles are shared for $0.01 per mile plus a processing fee of $30 and a tax recovery charge of 7.5%. GST/HST will be charged to Canadian residents. Miles purchased through Buy, Share or Gift Miles do not count towards Dividend Miles Preferred status. All other Dividend Miles Terms and Conditions apply. Miles may be used based on award availability at the time of booking. Please note that Dividend Miles accounts less than 12 days old are not permitted to Buy, Share or Gift miles. All purchases are non-refundable.

I must have killed the goose that laid the eggs in 2009, when the share promos were 0.9c each.

And the cost of the 25K bonus would be 2.27 cents per mile ($567.50) when transfering 50K.

No Thanks. The 100% bonus promo would be a better deal at 1.88 cents per mile.

Better yet, hope for Grand Slam to come back.

I passed on the 100% bonus because I don't have an immediate need for the miles. The share is even less enticing.

I'd go to great lengths for the Grand Slam though. :D;)

This is not a good promo in my opinion.

USAirways really needs the cash and keeping that in mind even 100% bonus sometimes is not worth it. But this one for sure is not worth it.

Hope they will bring the 100% bonus back.

Just my two cents.

Me thinks that they are "testing the waters" and slowly decrease the bonuses until they hit rock bottom..
This definitely is one of their worst promos ever cpm wise!

You should never pay more than .02 per mile.

You can always buy miles for .02 without any promo.

The way to do this is to buy a refundable ticket. When you buy the ticket, you are given the option to buy extra miles at .02 (only in multiples of the amount you would have gotten for flying, so you need to figure out which ticket to buy to get the amount of miles you want). You can then cancel the ticket and keep the purchase of the extra miles.

Incidentally, this works on UA at the same rates the same way.

I disagree! If US really needed cash (as they did 2-3 years ago), US would give us much more enticing Dividend Miles promos (as they did 2-3 years ago!!!).

My take is that these unatractive promos are a direct result of US being in a much better financial position these days.

hey guys,

Just a quick question, and potentially an obvious one.

I just purchased some miles in the June offer, unfortunately I didn’t have enough $$ to purchase the maximum number of miles for me and my partner. We both have separate US DM accounts.

Can someone tell or explain am I right in thinking that I could do the following to get 120k miles each:

My account : 100k
My partner: 40k
Total: 140k miles

Share 50k +25k for $500
My account : 55k
My partner: 115k
Total:170k miles


Share 50k +25k for $500
My account : 130k
My partner: 65k
Total: 195k miles

Share 50k +25k for $500
My account : 80k
My partner: 140k
Total: 220k miles

Share 30k +12k for $300
My account : 122k
My partner: 110k

Share 2k + 200 for $20
My account : 120 k
My partner: 112 k

Buy 8k miles 280
My account : 120 k
My partner: 112 k

My account : 120 k
My partner: 120 k
Total $2100
Cheers for any help.

No, you are not!

The bonus applies to your FIRST share transaction!! Plus, it is quite expensive and such a bad deal (2100$ for 100K miles), even if you could do it!! ;)
