Up to 50,000 AAdvantage Miles from Marriott Stays
I recently received an e-mail offer from AAdvantage with what it calls a "MegaMiles" promotion in conjunction with Marriott:
It's nice to see Marriott and American working together again.
(I don't know if this offer is targeted.)

Was there a link to the offer and/or do you see it in your online offers page when you login?

You may not see the offer if your earning preference is listed as "points".
However, I suppose you could switch the preference to "miles" and choose AA (you can always switch back after finishing the promotion), or call Marriott Rewards to see if they can register you manually.

MegaMiles is just the counterpart promotion to "MegaBonus," isn't it?
You get a megamiles promotion if you're a mile earner, or a megabonus (points) promotion if you're a points earner.

I figure for some people the AA/UA promo delivers better value than MR's MegaBonus. For me, I believe I'll stick with MR points.

Can Delta and SkyPesos be far behind?

Etihad As Well
I got the same email from Etihad touting 50k miles from MR MegaBonus. My MR account is set to points only earning so I dont think airlines are aware of your preferences before sending this promotion.

Can I change my preference and sign up instantly? Even though I am signed up for megabonus points promo.
Promo doesnt start till feb 1, so I thinking of switching on Jan 30, any experience?

I switched my preference to miles, and then went back to the link I received via email and signed up. So I am signed up for both, megamiles and megapoints. I haven't decided which one to stick with or to switch back and forth. I have probably will have four stays during the promotional period.

So, I don't know whether you can switch back and forth, but I'm pretty sure you can't use the same stay for both promotions.
