Just received this from UA. Appears to be untargeted.
Interestingly, ANA goes all the way down to S fares for 50% bonus, while UA tickets have to be bought in Q or higher. Perversely this encourages traveling ANA over UA this fall...

Thanks for posting this...I was thinking of making a trip home in Oct. I did not get the email (maybe it was targeted?), but tried to register and UA gave me the following error:

! We could not process your request. Please see the message below and make revisions.

This offer cannot be registered as it is not valid offer for selected country



UPDATE: Went to UA's website and I was able to register using their link.

Appears to be for residents of Japan only...

Well, at least not the United States:

Even the phrasing of that error message suggests the offer is not available to US residents.

I got it on Friday as a U.S. resident, though my promotion code was TB9M50. Otherwise the text was the same.

If the promo codes don't work for you, it should be available directly on this page:

Good question is why UA is struggling to get business out of SEA, while DL is going gung ho with new routes just announced to ICN and HKG.

LarkSFO

Ummm... SFO maybe?

What leads you to believe that UA is "struggling to get business out of SEA?" An airline not building out its third full-blown international gateway hub on the west coast hardly seems to be good evidence of a "struggle to get business."

My registration for that one was accepted, available from the promos page in the link posted above.

My registration was also accepted from the link above (I am a U.S. resident).

i'm planning an asia trip and thinking of buying an GPU-eligible fare. just noticed that this offer excludes GPU-eligible V and W fare classes on UA metal. arg..

I can't register for TB9M55 because it says I'm not in the right country.

When I try to register for TB9M50 I get nothing back but the same registration page with no confirmation that I'm registered and no error that I'm not registered.

.Bomb strikes again. And this is frustrating as I wasn't aware of this offer until today and tomrw I'm likely to book SEA-NRT-xxx flights which would make this bonus sweet.

Interestingly I just got an email from United about this campaign a couple days ago. I live in the US and it took me here:
https://www.united.com/web/en-US/app...omoCode=TB9M50
where I registered successfully.
Unfortunately I booked a flight before I was aware of this in K class which is ineligible
