Anyone else get this? I still don't see the miles posted in my account though.

Random, indeed. I got the same email tonight at 9:09pm EDT. I figured it must have been yet another random advertisement, but was surprised to see the "1,000 miles bonus" bit.

As far as how or why this was targeted,...I have not flown US Air since 10/2009,....before that, maybe 2007. I decided a few years back that I wouldn't be flying with them anymore, and if I did, I would send all my miles to my United FFP.

Maybe that is why I got this,...in an attempt to get me back? I only have enough miles for a single RT award ticket at this point, and whenever I use that, I may close my account. We'll see.

As far as more recent, non-flying activity, I did download and install the new Shopping Toolbar, so maybe that prompted this random bonus?

FYI,...Miles have not posted yet.

Regardless, thanks US Air.
