Flew through LAX on 9/18 (though I didn't see the QR code at the time). I registered via the link posted here on 9/21, and the points retroactively posted by 9/24 as part of my LAX trip as part of the bonus miles line. (It's possible they came through earlier, but I don't check my skymiles account everyday!)

Called them - if you don't scan the QR code you don't comply and won't get the miles. Someone needs to find the magic ticket and share around! I've flown through LAX a couple times during the promotion but do not recall seeing this specific QR code, but to be fair, I wasn't looking for it either.

that is great you got them - I have flown through a few times but nothing. I phoned and they said the QR code must be scanned. It's a strange one.

The link posted above is literally the same link the QR code takes you too.

When I flew last week, the QR code was on a sign as you were exiting T2 (on the terminal level), right near where the security line empties out into the terminal. Just a little bit due south of where the number "1" is located on this map https://www.flylax.com/-/media/flyla...-files/t2.ashx

I booked and flew on a last minute, one-way, award ticket to LAX on 9/21. Registered on 9/24 using the link provided and the miles posted the same day. I did not see any QR code.

super weird. I wonder if for me it's only going to post the bonus for flights taken after you've registered rather than go back and apply it to flights already taken? I sent a message in asking.

Registered for the promotion online, never scanned any QR code and received the 500 bonus miles as part of my flight posting:

Strange. I signed up yesterday with the link OP provided. I have not scanned any QR codes.

Today, i noticed 500 miles for a flight from BNA on August 29th.

But no points for a flight from Portland on September 19…

only difference I can think of is that I was in FC for the former flight.

Never scanned any QR code, but I received 500 miles twice for the two times I was in LAX in August.

I found the QR code. It was actually fairly noticeable.

Flying into LAX, the signage (photo posted above by matchbox20_is) was directly across from gate 22. Miles are showing this morning.

I signed up online but yet to receive my 500 miles. Haven't flown since or been to LAX so I may never see them.

Interestingly, I didn’t get any bonus miles. I was on an award ticket, though. I didn’t do anything with the QR code as I assumed it was a link to the same web portal shared by the OP.

We'll see if any miles post to my account.
To followup on this, Delta did NOT give me any free miles.
It let me register and upon registration it said that miles are on the way.
But I did not arrive, transit or depart LAX so I was not entitled to any miles.
And I won't be by the end of this month.
So I'm glad I didn't get any.

haha. That's like saying you registered for sky miles but didn't step foot on a plane and were hoping to get some miles. This promo is clearly a bonus opportunity for those flying into or out of LAX. You can register all you want but the earn provision is tied to flying in or out of LAX. I'm glad you didn't get any bonus miles too.
