Was disappointed as I just booked a flight to Alaska but realized the round-trip fare was a tad under $300 at time of booking.
up fare. United will gladly take your money.

It looks like UA has manually adjusted the RandomGeneratorMach2000® with a realism coefficient: 1 trip at $300 minimum for 8400 miles. Not only realistic but decently awarding too.

19,000 miles for 3 premium trips at least $400 each. Looks like they have noticed I’ve been flying paid F!

Just noticed that Premium Plus seats are eligible too.

3 trips for 5000 miles. That's a lot by 6/14 and only new tickets count. No thank you

4 trips of $25 or more each will award 3,000 miles.

As usual, this will have no impact on my bookings, but I may hit it organically anyway.

haven't flown in 14 months. They want me to book a premium seat at a minimum $600 fare, three times. If so, I get 72,000 miles.

Won't be happening!

Never have been eligible for one of these. I wonder if GS are always excluded?

Book and take 4 trips, get 5,000 RDM. Spend at least $150 per trip. Not the greatest offer really.

The offers are all over the map in this thread. Is there any rhyme or reason to who gets what?

Two premium cabin trips worth $350 each or 17,000 miles ... generous!

probably not. I never got them ... ever ever. Now during Covid I stopped flying ... 15 months and counting. Got the last 2. Clearly they look at your flight purchasing activity and want to give a little nudge.

Wouldn't a multi-city trip booked as 3 one-ways accomplish the task?
