Has anyone see the bonus miles post yet?

Had a IAD-SFO hop last week that was booked the day the promotion announced and in a high fare class. Seeing the base PQM but not the bonus.

I read the terms and they post 6-8 weeks after the close of the promotion. I haven't seen mine post yet either, so we'll probably have to wait the whole time.

I just booked a JFK-SFO RT but a V fare was 75% more than the T fare available, so I didn't buy the V despite having this promo. 75% more $ for 50% more miles did not seem worthwhile.

Wonder if the whole trip has to be V fare or higher?

Had a V fare on the outbound, W fare on the return....Have to see what posts as the T&Cs are not really specific enough to know.

Somehow I missed this...and just tried to book it with success. Already over 100,000 PQM this year (only about 20,000 on UA itself) and although I didn't receive the email it let me register. Odd.

Anyone have this post yet? I know it says 6-8 weeks after the period ends, but want to make sure I'm not missing it.

Only had 1 qualifying RT (would have been nice if it was good on OWs) and on it ended up VDBing on the return from LAX to SNA, so if it doesn't post, will ask for ORC, but no sense doing so if it posts eventually...

Given that the end of the period was May 23, 6-8 weeks puts us at July 11-25.

Definitely not worth checking for a few more weeks, IMO.

I have been wondering the same. Most promotions say that it takes 6-8 weeks, but typically post in less time. I am guessing after uniteds recent poor experience, they are taking their time. Especially since it is round trip to the same city. They might actually be reviewing those types of restrictions.

United EQM promo
I was told by a UA Mileage Plus agent that a bonus EQM promo was run in April/May but not offered to all MP members. Is this true?

Maybe for a specific route, but not systemwide.

No, but there may have been a PQM promo.

(Sorry, I couldn't resist.)

You're mistaken. It was systemwide, but targeted.

probably referring to http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/unite...on-tb5m11.html

I was not among the fortunate.

I was--but I haven't gotten the advertised bonus PQM yet. Is it too soon to nag United about this?
