Book and take a trip in a premium seat 1 time to get 11,000 bonus award miles
Each purchased fare must be a minimum of $700 to qualify

I have a trip already that meets this requirement, not sure how cancelling then re-booking would work, would probably be more expensive even though the stock is going back.

You'd need to pay the change fee plus any difference between what you already paid and the current fare.

Yeah, I started reading How to find fare rules for united flights? and realized it was going to be a non-starter. I'm still stuck in the WN ways where you can just cancel a ticket and the money goes into a voucher you can immediately use. I've used that method to rebook WN flights for cheaper.

4 trips, minimum $350 each
4,200 miles

Yawn.

If I hit it organically (very possible), then fine.

Once again it baffles me. This does nothing to drive additional / incremental spend...

Made out real well...1 trip for $225 nets 5800 miles.

Guess I'm being rewarded for not booking much on UA recently but I need to give this a whirl.

I got the same one. I probably won't complete it. My travel for the next 2 months is pretty much booked.

Nada

Nada for me ..... first time I have missed a MilePlay offer. Last time I hit it for the first time ever. I'd rather have a crap offer than nothing.
