Mine posted yesterday too, but I had called last week to ask about them.

I actually think you have me to thank for this.

Posted last night--that was pretty sweet! Forced an international A fare trip for March into February. Even got credit for a few short-haul USA/Canada trips in the front cabin. I like this promo!

I'm all caught up too.

That comment upthread about GSs not be eligible was an agent making something up.

All of mine just posted, apparently correctly, too. I'm frankly surprised that a date given out by a CSR (here, 3/31) ended up being true and not just something she pulled out of the air to get customers off the phone!

Mine are starting to trickle in. Flew in A/P/Z every segment since 1/9/15. Looks to be about 4 week lag in posting.

Only half of my bonus miles posted last night, I think.

The bonuses for flying on UA metal came through, but not those for code share flights (UA flight # and 016 stock) operated by LH.

If I read the T & C's right (term #8) those flights were also eligible for the bonue, if booked in Z. Is this correct?

Did United screw me again?

Yes they are and yes they did (but not giving up hope for a few more days). I had a ton of codeshare flights on 016 stock and none credited...
