It's the same useless promo as the one that started last month, with the laughably high fares needed to earn the double miles. Great if you already fly in those fare buckets, but certainly not priced to encourage anyone to specifically give it a go.

It's normally you mainline boys that get all the extras.. I couldn't understand why i'd got double bubble on a couple of flights but kept my mouth shut and took the brucey bonus.
I'm lined up for a couple of returns later in the month so that should be very profitable.
Thanks bmi

Do I remember correctly that I can get triple miles if I put these on my card as well if I don't use the corporate travel agent and buy them through the website?
Could I really get 5x 1200 each way?

Triple miles on your card is based on cash spent, not miles flown. So if you paid £200, you'd get 600 miles for the card plus whatever you earn on the promo.
