I wish I knew of a cheap way to earn UA miles for my daughter's account quickly. I posted about my situation, but no one's replied. I guess I made my post too long...

Thanks very much for your reply. I'm glad to hear that my method was a valid one, if not the cheapest one; I'd rather feared ridicule for actually purchasing miles.

BTW, this method is not as good as it used to be, since United raised the cost to purchase miles this year.

If you'd be willing, I'd be interested in talking with you, if only to get a feel for the kind of points I *should* be working on accruing. Would it be all right if I PMd you?

Thanks again,
