Mile Play (through Oct 31 2019)
Grrr, just noticed a new one this evening, and had just recently booked something that's outside the window now
Book and take a flight to or from San Francisco (SFO)*
*Each purchased fare must be a minimum of $250 to qualify
On the bright side it was only for 4k bonus miles.

Was wondering when this one would drop... Seems like they go a bit under 3 weeks between.
3x @$500 for me for 7.5k. Meh, although I'll likely make it as I need the PQD anyway. Sounds like another day trip to BTV for some good beer, another transcon for the miles, and something else...

As I usually book 8-10 weeks out, just booked a Nov trip last week, these rarely could work for me (the few times I get an offer -- maybe due to may booking pattern)
Look on the mobile app, very bottom of the home page.

Book 4 trips ($200 minimum), earn 5700 miles.
If I hit this, it will be purely by coincidence. My present inclination to spend additional dollars to earn additional UA miles is exactly zero.

I didn't get an email, just been checking every few days.
I forget if these are rolled out in any gradual fashion but you might try again later in the week/next week etc.

Book and take a trip 2 times to get 14,000 bonus award miles.
*Each purchased fare must be a minimum of $450 to qualify
I already have travel booked for next month. Will that trip qualify?

"Only transactions initiated after registration and completed on or prior to October 31, 2019 will qualify toward satisfaction of the offer requirements."

Indeed; almost all UA T&C for offers requires ticketing after the promo starts. Making a change to the booking that triggers reticketing can usually qualify a prior booking, but that means upfaring or paying a change fee in most cases.

For the first time, this 1K actually got an above average offer... And it's for a 1K who's already requalified, so not a light spender that UA is trying to encourage.
3 trips @$500 for 39000 miles.
I'll have one trip for sure, perhaps 2. But the third? $500 is not worth 39k miles.
