I just registered as a silver through the link provided earlier. I'd love the bonus miles--10,000 for 2 round trips is a good offer. However, I'm not flying UA to ride in the back of the coach cabin, or if lucky at checkin, a middle seat toward the front--especially not with surly flight attendants. The way silvers were shot down this year is still infuriating to me. I'll take the American status match and ride in Y+ at least through 2013, thank you just the same.

IAH Plat, received the 2/3/5 and registered. I fly a B fare about every other week, but only 750miles e/w on express. About 22K this year so far.

I booked a personal trip on 4/15 using a voucher I had; registered on 4/27, so will this trip count?

I am just miffed that I had ticketed 3 flights in April and Jun on 13 April two days before this was announced. Anybody have any cheap RT out of ORD?

1k in NYC, not eligible.

Saw on the UA1k FB page about a status match over to AA...may be worth checking out...screw us on the merger, kill us with now terrible service & worse policies, and now not let us register for promos that encourage flying.

Maybe that's why UA wasn't even mentioned in the Freddies yesterday & AA won a lot.

UA767400, are you our child? I just got the same thing...it let me register me but not my wife. we are both Premier Silver. Makes no sense and the only travel I have planned on UA now are the two trips I booked last December. CO used to run a promo they called Mileageathon, it was similar to this, you got points for doing things like signing up for online account and points for trips booked on their web site all within a certain time frame. Once that time frame was over, you got bonus miles.

I'm based at a hub with similar #s (though about half the EQS) as you, and got the 1/2/4 offer, too. My wife (GM with 1 paid and 2 award trips YTD) hasn't gotten any of the offers.

I don't know that there is any rhyme or reason to who gets what.

1K out of EWR with 30K flown this year so far, got the 6/7/8 offer. Very frustrating as I already have 4 RTs booked for the next few months so there's no way I'll be able to get close to 6 more in there.

Plat without a flight since 4/5. I got the 7/8/9 offer

I should get to 7, not sure about 8 or 9, though. Just got a huge local project, so that makes things a little tough.

LAS Based 1P. I've done about 10K this year with another ~50K booked through the end of the year. I got the 1/2/4 offer.

I have a question about "Round trip". According to the T/Cs of the offer a RT is:
A roundtrip is defined as travel from an origin city to a destination city with return travel beginning in the destination city back to the origin city.
If we do a work trip of say, LAS-BWI, BWI-DEN, DEN-LAS (with multiple days at BWI then DEN) would this work provided I booked it all on one multi-city itinerary?

Gold in NYC, no dice registering for this promo. Maybe they are mad that my last 2 flights were on DL.

It would seem that that would be a circle trip
