Thanks! I got the other "07/09" link, but missed this one.
Lest anyone think otherwise, I generally learn about it from this forum, as I am NOT targeted except in rare occasions, FO or not.

An edit and an addition.

The Shuttle bonus (2,500 miles per shuttle leg) is now valid through August 15, not July 26. I think it got extended. (Sidenote: It's curious that the URL for the shuttle bonus includes "shuttle_double_mqms" even though the offer is for bonus miles, not MQMs).

And the addition is almost over, but earn 1,000 SkyMiles per stay at many Starwood properties through 7/31/09.

Thanks for the help. Updated the DL link, and noted that the NW link had said 8/15/09...so I guess that was to align them. That is an excellent point on the MQMs vs. bonus miles, as at least one poster mentioned doing MRs on the shuttle for cheap extra MQMs. I've asked DL to clarify on "970632" in Deltamatic / PARS and hope DeltaWebGuy and DeltaWebDev can assist, due URL "promise" of double MQMs. A phone call to Skymiles desk says "only bonus miles", however. I hope there was not a change to this promo's T&Cs, besides the date.

Note also that the NW link T&C states: "Bonus Miles for this promotion are in addition to your regular credited flight miles and Elite tier Bonus Miles. Approximate credited flight miles can be found at http://www.nwa.com/worldperks/track/calc.shtml. Bonus Miles do not count toward Elite qualification. Bonus Miles will be posted to member’s account registered for this promotion four to six weeks after completion of qualifying travel. "
-----------------
On partner promos, I appreciate the mention as a separate post, but the page would get to long if I mentioned all - I added a couple of exceptions with extra-high, MQM, or status upgrades. I do see this promo coming up on the Shuttle bonus page as a link in a box to the right.

Do you have a link to the NW promo? I'd like to read those T&C.

Also, I would assume that you would want to pass this on to the Skymiles Promo person not the web guys... I cannot remember her name but I'm sure that atldlff or Canarsie does.

Link (Also on 1st page, Item #14.A.1. (in current format):
1. DL Shuttle to 8/15/09: http://www.nwa.com/offers/deltashuttle/
Click to expand the red arrow by T&C.

I've PM'd DeltaWebGuy to talk to Loyalty. He confirms this is double flown miles as a bonus, but not double MQMs.

Amex Double flown Miles - MQM's?

I may have missed this, but... Regarding the Bonus Double miles for this promotion, does anyone know if the double miles are MQM's? I cant really discern from the terms...

now that i re-read the terms i don't see it spelled out, but i'd assume there are no mqms involved in this promo. double miles for any ticket class between now and 12/31 would be beyond any previous mqm promo (this year at least) and doesn't make sense in this context.

Is the list open to SkyMiles Dining? If so...

Double Up on Bonus Miles Register now to earn double miles on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays from 7/1/09 through 9/30/09

I found no existing thread on this particular promotion and did not see it mentioned in post #1 of this thread.

Copy:
Have you been doubling your miles? Good news: you can keep it going for another 3 months-but only if you register! Register now for the Double Up On Miles Bonus so you can continue to earn double miles on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesday from 7/1/09 through 9/30/09.

HOW TO DOUBLE UP 7/1/09 - 9/30/09:

1 Make sure you register for the Double Up On Miles Bonus*.
2 Dine out on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays and earn double miles!
T&C:
Double Up On Miles Bonus Details

* This bonus offer is open to all Online and/or VIP Members. To qualify, you must register for the Double Up On Miles Bonus through the links on this page. You must be opted in and remain opted in to receive emails from SkyMiles Dining with a valid, deliverable email address. You must continue to satisfy Online or VIP Member level criteria to earn this bonus.

To earn double miles, you must dine at any participating restaurants, bars or clubs on any Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday through September 30, 2009.

There is no maximum number of miles that can be earned with this bonus. This bonus is combinable with other SkyMiles Dining bonuses.

Great job on the consolidated promos sticky!!!

Some notes: under Current Delta Promotions

5. New International Routes - the link you have for the thread is actually the same link to the marketing copy at delta.com. The thread link should be: Get Up to 50,000 Bonus Miles on New International Routes

8. The threads on the Avis promos are as follows:
MUAA088: DL forum 5,000 DL miles for 2 day Avis rentals, or Drive away with Avis and 25,000 bonus miles Avis forum 5,000 DL miles for 2day rental
MUAA132 & 133: Earn up to 5,000 Bonus Miles with Avis
The link for promo MUAA135 has a typo. "ww" instead of "www". I could find no thread in either the DL forum or the Avis forum for this coupon code.

9. The thread for the Wyndham promo can be found here: 10K miles for 3 stays

Thanks for the help, Evan!
As I've noted, I won't be listing many partner promos that can be easily found on DL or partner website. My exceptions are those that offer a significant mileage bonus (5K-10K with minimal effort, not 1K), or "actual non-flying MQMs" (e.g. current Hilton/MQM) , or are status upgrades (e.g. Starwood/NW WP - targeted). I just don't have room. If only coming by email, or only mentioned (or in controversy) on on FT, then I'll post the FT link.
-- I'll also encourage posting just the link and short summary/title, and not the entire details, as the reader can read the T&Cs there. Otherwise, a new thread can be started for a particular promo, and I'll list/link it here.

Also, I intend to use the DL or NW links, not the flyertalk forum links. If you are on Flyertalk, you can search for the thread. However, Delta makes it VERY difficult to find their promotions, and a constant post is "What is the link to register?". That was actually why I put this thread together: To have all of those promos from DL listed, with their link, in one consolidated place (and for NW as it merges).

i was just thinking another great piece of info to include with each promo would be the expected post date for the resulting miles based on the t&c's.

for example, the "keep a good thing going" 10/100k promo says 4-6 weeks after 12/31/09, making the post-by date 2/11/10.

or the delta amex double bonus (https://www.deltaamexcard.com/DoubleMiles/) says 8-12 weeks from 12/31/09, for a post-by date of 3/25/10.

I hope we see a match to the UA worldwide award sale for saver awards (North America 20K, Hawaii 30K, Central America and Caribbean 25K, Asia 50K, etc., good Aug. 18-Nov. 18).

Actually the copy at the bottom of the link you provide reads "Bonus miles will be posted to your Delta SkyMiles® account 8 to 12 weeks after the end of each month." (bolding mine)

As a data point, I just had the Amex cardholder double miles bonus post within a few hours of my flights yesterday. They posted as RDM and not MQM.
