Double BASE mile offer
I received the following card in the mail today. From the Massachusetts address, I suspect it might have been a targeted mailing.
Coast into Medallion status for 2002 -- and celebrate 20 years of frequent flyer rewards.
Now when you fly Delta between May 15, 2001, and July 15,2001, you'll earn double miles on every flight, and as an added bonus, these miles count towards Medallion status -- that means you can earn 2002 Medallion status twice as fast. *
To register for this offer, simply call 1-888-558-3358 and enter offer code 1050.
Want to earn more miles? Buy your ticket on delta.com and you'll earn 1,000 bonus miles for each round trip purchased. **
Earn status fast. Fly often. We'll see you on board.
* This offer is applicable on all Delta coded flights. You must register to qualify for double-base-miles promotion. This offer is nontransferable. Once registered, bonus miles will be credited on all flights taken between May 15, 2001, and July 15, 2001, and will appear on your SkyMiles statement. All standard SkyMiles program rules and conditions apply. For complete Medallion program rules, visit our Web site at delta.com/skymiles.
** To earn delta.com online bonuses, tickets must be purchased on delta.com at time of reservation. Online bonus not available for tickets purchased by calling a Delta reservation center. This offer requires round-trip purchase. Bonus miles apply only to the traveling SkyMiles member. Online bonus offer is subject to change or withdrawal with 30 days advance notice. Any changes to the bonus offer will be posted on delta.com. Web mileage bonus of 1,000 miles does not apply toward Medallion status.
Refer to G*9706/13-36

The automated system accepted all my entries, so it seems to have worked for me as well, based in ATL.

I just received the same card today. This may not be a targeted mailing as I live in NYC and not BOS. Has anyone in ATL, CVG or SLC received this card? If they did, then this is a national mailing to all Medallions.
The travel dates stated are 5/15-7/15, I wonder if we will get credit for the trips that we have already booked for these dates before registering this week?

Glad to know this is not a strictly targeted mailing. At least I think I'm glad...

Frankly, I'll be very surprised to get this mailing, but I won't be surprised to hear that Medallions in LA or SF or SD get it. There's competition in those markets.
Rssrsvp, was your mailing from the same return address as HRGM's? I guess we'll just have to wait and see about the trips we've already booked. We have one on Wednesday, so maybe we won't have to wait too long.
And HRGM, thanks again.

GG, keep us updated.
I am pretty sure it *WILL* work for flights having been booked prior to this offer. There is NO mentioning whatsoever that one has to book after enrolling for the promo. And the Medallion promo last year DID work...

For the record, the return address on my mailing was:
201 Summer St.
Holliston, MA 01746
Heck, I don't know anything in Holliston. According to Mapblast, the only thing of note near the address is "Chicken Brook"!
