Thank you for the response. Much appreciated.

I too say yes to all questions. :D

My emiles transfer just showed up in my USAir account this morning.

I do this as well... see new cruise offers at least weekly.

Continental Miles Posted Today
 

I know many people wonder about these programs. My e-miles just posted into my continental account. My wife's e-miles also posted in her account. 500 each, so I guess the "clicks" are worth it!^

Ditto here.

At least with e-miles you know how many miles you get, even though you have to wait until you accumulate 500 miles, and then after the end of a quarter.

Far more transparent than "e-rewards" which I maintain is not worth one's time (works out to 40 frequent flyer miles per hour spent doing surveys), has many restrictions on earning (caps), your points devalue, sometimes as quickly as 32 days after earning them, and have many other problems. I've cancelled e-rewards and am sticking with e-miles. Only problem with e-miles is not that many opportunities to earn.

I would say though that more miles can be earned through e-rewards in the same period of time with e-miles. Where e-miles has the advantage is that it is constant all year.

My CO miles are in my account! :cool:

Yes maybe "e-rewards" does have more restrictions, but at least you can (provided you have enough) put 2000 miles into CO, 2000 miles into AA, 2000 miles into US, 2000 miles into NW, etc.... However with "e-miles", you can just earn 2000 miles per year (500 miles * 4 qtrs) for CO alone.

And you can still earn both e-miles and e-rewards! :D And free miles are free miles! ;) (I'll take them both!)

In my case, my e-miles are bound for Delta. I agree with you about E-rewards.

Very sorry the_traveler about the loss of your cat!

Condolences the_traveler on the loss of your longtime pet/friend.

On E-rewards, IIRC you can only redeem once a year for airmiles?? Or am I thinking of some other earnings program?

Thank you!

Yes, you can only redeem once per year per airline, but it is once per year with DL, once per year with AA, once per year with CO, etc... - so you could get more than 2000 miles, but not with the same airline.

Thanks, didn't catch that little detail in the T&Cs...now if I could just get enough opportunities to get any of those miles (lol)

Just a reminder to check your emiles accounts-the quarter is ending and you may have opportunities that will give you enough points for redemption. I often find that the emails from emiles are delayed at least several days after the opportunities are actually on my accounts.

thanks but I am at the 300+ mark right now and so i am at the whim of the offers that come in for the 5 mile adds.

Want to share your success? :D

well in first Q I was stuck at 495 forever so I missed it. When I got to about 630 or so, the second one came. I redeemed leaving the left over and have just been doing the many 5 pt things since. So my success is that I missed one posting. Should I make #3, it will be because of this missed opp or failure from #1!~
