Bennigan's Now on RewardsNetwork
 

Did 2 searches yesterday for different city/state combos and saw Bennigan's listed as New in the listings for each. Perhaps Bennigan's being added as a national chain?

Nice find, it is confirmed for all local Dallas area locations, including the Allen location minutes from my house.

MD My MD (Laurel)
 

Bennigan's showed up under my AA search (Elite Status), but not under my United or Delta (non-Elite status.)

I got a $5 Turkey O'Toole to go on 10/2. Would I like to also get a $25 gift card for a $5 bonus card, she asked. Of course I would. :)

Same thing in Tampa.

Bennigan's now shows up as "NEW!" under the AA iDine site, but is absent from both the United and Priority Club versions of the same site.

Thanks for the headsup.

The one in Milford CT has been on the program for at least a couple years now.

It's a new RN addition in Boston, and it's in a great location (in the heart of the city).

No love with NWA for my addybook cities :(

I got an email from AA Dining today, announcing this:

Hundreds of New Opportunities to
Dine Out and Earn Miles.

You can now earn American Airlines AAdvantage® miles at select
Bennigan's, Steak and Ale and Ponderosa locations!

(It then goes on to list some Texas restaurants as well, odd since I am not registered, nor have I ever been registered in Texas)

NOTE: THE ABOVE LOCATIONS MUST BE THOSE THAT SELL/ACCEPT GIFT CARDS.

I just checked Southern NJ for a Bennigans and there was one, although NJ is not listed as having a location at all on the Bennigan's "map" drop-down menu for the link listed above.

It would seem that the restaurants listed by the link provided above, are just a sub-set of the universe of Benigan's restaurants that participate via IDINE.

Therefore, still check the area you will be dining in to see if there is a participating restaurant for one of the chains listed above, even if you don't see one listed via any of the links provided above.

Which means it's going to cost me around $20 for parking to eat there?

Park in the garage under the Common for $10 or either in Kenmore Sq. (plentiful meters if there is no Red Sox game, free after 6PM) or in Central Sq. (multiple lots, free parking from Friday eve. till Mon. morning) and T it over! Have a drink at Bennigan's and a nice dinner at Avila, which is across the street and a RN restaurant as well. :D

The nicest thing I can say about Bennigan's is that the drinks are decent.

Also we can do carry out for the office. Guess I'll be doing the carry out runs.

Not necessarily both on the same run!

Why not? :confused: (hic hic hic hic :D)

Thanks for the info! I have lived in Wilmington for 3 years but never eaten/drunk at the Bennigan's which was a mile from my home! I didn't even notice when it went OOB!

Anyone know if the Bennigan's in DFW D terminal counts? I don't know how to search an address inside the airport!!

Bennigan's says the address is:

DFW Airport
Terminal D SC 104
Grapevine, TX 75261
1-972-973-4316

In the Skymiles Dining Site, I didn't see it under a zip code search with a 15 mile radius.

That is unfortunate, they would have got my business over Friday's every time if it counted. I might try it anyway and let everyone know.

Now on UA Mileage Plus But...
 

Just noticed two local Bennigan's show up on the RN UA Mileage Plus listing, but rewards are only listed for next Thursday, up to then rewards are not available.

I don't know if this means that these restaurants are just joining the UA program as of that date, or if rewards will only be available on Thursdays. Will check again in a couple days to see what things look like.

Make sure you do two things...

There are surveys in the locations you can fill out... list Rewards Network as the reason you went.

Make sure you fill out your restaurant review and list that the reason you went was that they were part of RN...

Those two things should increase its availability sooner or later.
