I've been getting these every year for the last 3 years and I don't understand how they come up with these offers. The challenge clearly has nothing to do travel patterns. My Plat status comes largely from long haul flights in BF with a smattering of holiday flights. The number of flights that they expect me to complete in a few months does not reflect my travel patterns at all. If I did many short segments and they wanted to give me insentive to up my flight class, the offer would make sense

I couldn't register online, I had to call. So I doubt (although I could be wrong
) posting the registration number here would be helpful.

I'm not sure how others received their "invite" but mine came in the mail and specifically said it was for me.
I hope I get one of these, since I do have a bunch of flying scheduled for the next several months

[QUOTE=robmarrone]! This promotion code is not in the system.

Promo code is also tied to your OnePass number. If you're not on the list, you don't get in. This is a targeted deal only, and they've got it locked up.

Got the offering today in the mail . My first after many years. It runs from 10/1-3/31/06 . The qouta is 26 flights for 104,000 miles ,3 more for 15,000 and 4 more for 24,000 for a total of 143,00 bonus miles. I have no idea how these numbers were arrived and how I could attain them! I fly almost weekly ,but still these numbers particularly over the hoidays wiil be hard to reach.
