What's to check?
$50.00=5000c
5000c/6000mi = 0.83c/mi

For another year, I've enrolled in the Extra Mile Program. Also, I've purchased another Prestige Pack.
Continental is smart to offer these opportunities. I haven't flown on paid Continental tickets since March. Now, I'll fly at least 30,000 actual miles on Continental this year.

Are these miles credited by some process that runs periodically? I have a couple of flights from last week that don't have the bonus listed. My earlier flights this year do have the bonus credited.

Do codeshare flights booked through Continental get the extra mile credit?

Having just done my first "extra mile" run two (2) weeks ago, this was a matter about which I was wondering.
Thanks for the info, fly co to see the yanks.

Just noticed they revived it again. You can sign up now & they'll apply the bonus miles for all applicable flights since Jan 1. AND, you still get the 1,000 sign-up bonus miles.
I'm kind of bummed - now that I know we're going to Hawaii in December, I would have signed up for the highest tier.
I thought maybe I'd sign up again, but they already nixed that idea - there's wording in the offer you can only sign up once in a 12 month period.
