US Airways Dividend Miles (Pre-FlightFund Merger) - Questions regarding Go Fares

I've got a couple of questions regarding Go Fares (and the US DM Service Center is closed today) - Thanks in advance for your help!

1) Are the fares listed here - http://www.usairways.com/pro/specials/dc_gofares.htm#Between - the only fares that are considered Go Fares for the Triple mile promo from DC? In other words, if I find a lower or higher fare between DCA & LAS - if I were to book that, would I still get triple miles - or do I have to book the 99 each way fare?

2) Do Go Fares require an overnight stay? I found a DCA-PHL-LAS-CLT-DCA fare for about 204 after taxes, same day return - will I still get triple miles?

Thanks!

1.) All fares between GoFare cities, not just GoFares, recieve 3x miles. Its better to book nonstops between cities, or you will have to call to get your miles.

2.) No saturday night is required.

Thanks for the reply, gar777! Just out of curiousity - when you say it's better to book non-stops otherwise you'll have to call - does that imply that it's better NOT to do the extended routings with these fares? I'm looking at LAS via PHL/CLT because I need to get 18,500 miles & with the triple miles bonus & check-in and online purchase bonuses, this will do it.

Thanks!

S,

Yes, if you include connections, the PHL-Connection leg MAY post but you will have to call for the triple miles for the rest of the itinerary. I did a PHL-SAN-CLT-PHL roundtrip. Outbound PHL-SAN posted - had to literally fight for the triple miles for the SAN-CLT-PHL segments.

Also, CALL the DMSC to make sure you have been registered - don't depend on the website!!!

Happy flying ^

Thanks - I'll make sure I call the DMCS tomorrow morning to verify registration. Too bad when you print out a registration page, it doesn't say that you've registered for a particular promotion like NW does - it just that you're registered.
