Rudi, I think the bonus is now 5,000, plus an additional 2,500 miles for flying within 90 days of enrolling. May I request a thorough examination of the little piece on senior programs we're doing "Online Only" July 1? I would be interested in your comments.
I didn't want to be a bother, but in light of Rudi's bringing up the subject I'll take advantage of it to ask about FTers about their satisfaction with senior programs. From my reading of them, they are very money-smart for those who fly a lot and who can find flights on which to use their travel vouchers. And United permits membership at the tender age (wink wink) of 55, which puts it at the top in my book.
Here are the FFPs and FTPs that have senior programs that I know of: Hilton Senior HHonors, US Airways (Senior Savers and Golden Opportunities), Delta SkyWise, United Silver Wings, Continental Freedom Flight Club. AAdvantage doesn't have a name for its senior programs, but 62+ flyers get a 10% discount and can get travel coupon booklets.
I'm sure there's more--anyone?
