There seems to be a bug with Lyft reporting miles to Delta if you paid for the rides using credits/gift card instead of a credit card.

I finally received all my missing Lyft rides posted to my account on 12/19 -- these were from Aug/Sep/Oct. I believe they stopped posting after I purchased one of those get $3 off every Lyft ride passes and even after that discount ended, they still weren't posting. I messaged Lyft who told me to contact Delta, I pushed back to Lyft and said OK but tell me what you've sent to them and then they said they'd investigate. I heard nothing back but they all posted.

Anyone have an airport ride not post as 2X? I got three of them to post to Jetblue, but only two posted for Delta, with the third ride not posting as an airport ride. It's a measly 14SM so I'm not going to pursue it.

I had the opposite "problem" -- a ride that began or ended in the vicinity of the airport (but definitely not on airport property) posted as 2x to my account and I thought "you're calling that an airport ride? OK, I'm not gonna argue"

There's apparently some mystery holiday promotion going on, as mentioned in the consolidated promotions thread (also seen on FB and Reddit and no one seems to know what it's from):
While Googling around, I noticed something on the DL site that apparently is not new, but I don't remember seeing mentioned before, which is that rides to/from Mercedes-Benz Stadium in ATL earn 3x miles.

I picked up the usual 1 mile/$ on my two recent DC Lyft rides... but a 1500 skymile bonus (ride was over $10) and a 1000 point bonus (ride was just under $10). I was quite surprised!!

I don't think it is based on money spent. I think it's a holiday partner promo. I got the same 1000 and 1500 both associated with airport trips. I hope it's a ladder and keeps on going, since I've got at least one more this week!

How do you spend that much on uber?! Shouldn't you just buy a car at that point?

WeekendAway, did that email mention any other partners than Lyft? Such as SkyMiles Dining (RN,) hotels, car rentals, points.com transfers? So those of us who are targeted can maximize our earnings?
And NOLA, I have had several more Lyft rides since my bonus, but have not received any more bonuses. Perhaps we can link our Lyft accounts to a friend's DL to earn 2500 for each friend ! IF said friend(s) is/ are targeted!
