And you wonder why I'm a milage junkie...

3500 miles today for an SR
200 miles for two courses

My next flight, which will probably be next Wednesday:

2000 miles for this promotion.
2000 miles for SuperSize
1000 miles EQM
500 Silver Elite Bonus
500 B fare Service Bonus (possible)
5000 miles from 100,000 DASH (fare pushes me over next 100 point mark)

that's right... 10,000 miles for my next flight. And you wonder why we have so many miles in our accout.

But seriously... thanks for letting us all know about this!

Feel like I'm back in school. Just took all the classes for all of the accounts in my house, and will tell everyone I know of, of this...

My points posted 2 minutes after I took my courses

I checked my WP balance and the 200 bonus points were already posted.

Smile oh well...

This WP University 200 miles Bonus, however tiny, is the first positive thing I have heard from NW for a long, long time.

I still believe that NW should follow a 1,000 middle seat gurantee for all elites ala Continental--now that would be a good way to give out miles, especially after the disappointing Roach Choice program. Pesky 100 mile awards for completing three mindless questions is just plain irritating. Maybe with 250 of these, someone can work their way to a free ticket.

I must say, though, that I am impressed at how quickly the 200 miles posted.

Thank you for posting the link. I would have missed it. I have a flight in April to book and will enjoy the extra points.

Ummm .. like maybe 100,000 MILE DASH credits ?
Nope, like SuperSize.

Then again, SuperSize is $20, and this is free...

Believe the T&Cs state two $25 WP Mall purchases. That's $.05/RDM. Not good at all, after that first 2000 miles for free.

So would a Plat sitting in a Y-middle get 2000 miles?

Plat Gaurentee conflict with WPU?

Looking for a Plat who signed up, got the 2000 miles bonus and sat in Y (no F upgrade).

Did you get your Plat Guarentee bonus, also?

Is Plat Guarentee considered a "Bonus Miles offer"?

Thanks!
