Will United match AA's double/triple miles promo?
Any idea if United will match AA's double miles promo for business and first class tickets?
from AA:
You’ve been selected to earn double award miles on First and Business class tickets through August 31.
Here’s how it works:
Register before you travel using promotion code XXX
Purchase and fly on First or Business class tickets on qualifying flights*
2X icon Earn double award miles on all those flights through August 31, 2017
This is an exclusive offer only for members who received an email directly from American Airlines. You must register by 11:59 p.m. CDT on June 7, 2017, and prior to travel in order for your flights to count toward this promotion.
* AAdvantage® bonus mileage offer is only valid for travel on American Airlines marketed flights (operated by American Airlines, British Airways, Iberia, Finnair or Japan Airlines). Flights marketed and/or operated by other codeshare partners are not eligible for this promotion. Offer applies to purchased published fares in First Class booked in F or A; Business Class fares booked in J, R, D or I. Double miles will be calculated at 100% of the base award miles earned for the eligible flights (excludes award miles earned from elite bonuses). Bonus miles do not count toward elite status qualification or AAdvantage® Million MilerSM status. Travel flown prior to registration for this promotion is not eligible for the bonus mile offer.

I was selected by AA to receive TRIPLE miles. I would be very happy, indeed, to have UA match and select me. Somehow, I doubt they will...

A 1K here who has been flying A LOT more non-UA flights (lots of Air Canada for international and AA for some International and Domestic) - so this is increasing my interest in AA. Since I never get any love from UA as a 1K (I can't find any GPU eligible flights and saver international is MIA; even rare to get CPU or RPU to clear and NEVER get emails from UA).
