For those of you wanting to track your credits... you'll be able to view your Mileathon activity at continental.com/mileathon starting in early October. Our activity postings aren't in real time, but once we do start posting activity it'll be updated every 2-3 weeks. We've done this monthly in the past, but this time it'll be more frequent. If you believe you are missing credits, please contact our OnePass Service Center for assistance.

Edited to add: I just noticed that this mileathon is only good for fares booked at continental.com. CO Insider, those of us who have to book via a corporate travel agent still get no love. I book the required fare classes to get my miles at the 100% level with my TA. This is yet another promotion where those who are required to use an alternative source for travel bookings get messed over.

Sadly for me, this is the third Mileathon in a row that I cannot benefit from. Do Continental not value folks that buy one way tickets ?. I almost never have a round trip, I am always going either one way, or flying out of one and returning from another. This happened two mileathons ago, I bought about 40 trips, and got zip for it.
bummer

Hi Everyone, sorry for the false start. You should now be able to register for this promotion at continental.com/mileathon.

Hi mnbv and coMCIua, when it comes to booking air tickets, only the travel date needs to occur after registration, not the actual booking.

Scott, thanks for showing us corporate TA travel bookers some love!! |
Since nothing says otherwise, I'm assuming these mileathon credit bonuses will be in addition to the usual specific bonus mile deals for such activities as getting a credit card or opening a checking account? For instance, I get the Chase checking account and debit card for the 25,000 mile deal but then I can add on another 2,500 miles thanx to the mileathon activity. Or another 5,000 miles in addition to the usual 25,000 miles for the mastercard. Sounds good to me.

Ugh, I opened my Chase account a few weeks ago... that would have netted me a few more miles from this promo. Maybe I'll open a Key Bank somewhere in my travels.

Why aren't "A" fares included in any of the credit-earning activities at all?
And why is Scott working an all-nighter? |
appears the early pushback is now on time

Is that correct? If so, I am canceling an A fare I am holding and re-booking it as a B fare.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

+1 I can understand excluding the really cheap Economy fares and I know "A" fares are typically not eligible for promotions, but come on..."A" fares in many cases are more than most Economy fares (maybe not Y or Bs). It is still a published premium cabin fare...and Continental still values it as a high fare by doling out 150% EQM's.
Come on Continental...show the love to the "A" fares! :D Booking this today: SJO-xIAH-MCO-xEWR-HNL-xEWR-MCO-xIAH-SJO Close to US$4k in revenue but all in "A" and NO Mileathon love. Maybe I should book cattle car. Hmmm. Ok, no!!! |
Just registered for it
