No Worries,I actually fly about 4 times a year,4-6 hour flights,but would like to get more miles some other way. Thanks for the information.

Remember, when you answer these survey questions, be interested in EVERYTHING so they will send you more surveys.

Another thing to remember, sometimes they give you extra emiles if you sign up for stuff, remember to click on the link to sign up for the offer (but give fake email addresses and addresses and it actually works most of the time).
I actually do have some time to kill,and I will do just that,will see how it goes.

Thanks

Am I missing something?
This is what I might be wondering about,is it really worth it,I do not mind doing surveys,I always do some reviews along my travels,but I am thinking that this one might be more spam in my inbox. Will see.

The initial first 300 emiles questions take along time. everything else are very short. If qualified for certain ereward surveys, i find those take VERY LONG to complete.
So is eRewards a different invitation from eMiles?
