Mints distributed on UA flight
Looks like another push for the mileage plus card. Mints distributed towards the end of the flight last night

Indeed is a promo from all hubs plus HNL and CLE. I wrote about earlier today on my (disclosure) blog:

With airlines making billions from selling miles to banks, I'm not surprised theyre pushing the chase cards on all of us.

I'm currently on my 2nd UA MP Explorer Card in 3 years. I keep closing them after earning the sign up bonus and migrating the credit to another Chase card. Your only limitation is time- only 5 per 24 months for all Chase cards with a sign up bonus, and 24 months between the specific cards.

Got these mints yesterday on IAH-LAX; was sitting in first and they were distributed even before the post-departure drinks and nuts.
Most amusing aspect for me was upon landing, when I saw at least 10 of those rounds mints rolling up the aisle as if on a bowling alley. The box is not well designed, so trying to get a mint usually means a few fall to the floor.
