United Sweepstakes Gives Vaccinated Customers a Shot to Win Free Flights, a Year of Travel
"Your Shot to Fly" sweepstakes aims to encourage COVID-19 vaccinations in support of the Biden administration's national effort to encourage people to get vaccinated
United is only U.S. airline where customers can upload COVID-19 testing and vaccination records directly to the airline's app and website via the Travel-Ready Center

CHICAGO, May 24, 2021 -- United Airlines is offering its loyalty program members the chance to win free flights for a year's worth of travel, in support of the Biden administration's national effort to encourage more people to get their COVID-19 vaccination.

Under the terms of the "Your Shot to Fly" sweepstakes, any new or existing MileagePlus member who uploads their vaccination records to the airline's mobile app or website between today and June 22 can be entered to win a roundtrip flight for two, in any class of service, to anywhere in the world United flies. United will give away 30 pairs of tickets throughout the month of June. In addition on July 1 United will announce five randomly selected lucky MileagePlus members who have entered our sweepstakes for a grand prize of travel for a year for themselves and a companion also in any class of service, anywhere in the world United flies. For video and photos of the upload process, click here.

United remains the only U.S. airline that gives customers the ability to upload COVID-19 testing and vaccination records directly to the airline's digital platforms including its award-winning mobile app though the airline's Travel-Ready Center. By uploading your vaccine record with United, customers will save time at the airport and be confident they are ready to fly to destinations where showing proof of vaccination is required.

"We're proud to do our part to incentivize people to get their shot," said United CEO Scott Kirby. "Thanks to the vaccine, more and more destinations are opening up for travel and we know our customers are eager to fly. We're excited to give people one more reason to get vaccinated so they can reunite with friends and family or take that long-awaited vacation which all could be just one shot away."

United is giving sweepstakes winners and all customers - more options to visit dream destinations, as the airline is launching brand-new routes to Croatia, Greece and Iceland, and resuming flights to Italy, Portugal, Spain and France this summer. The airline is also growing its presence in Africa, with new nonstop flights from New York/Newark to Johannesburg, South Africa starting June 3* (*subject to government approval), complementing recently launched service from Washington, D.C. to Accra, Ghana and seasonal nonstop flights from New York/Newark to Cape Town, South Africa.

Question How can tell if your vaccine record received by United?

I can see the COVID-19 vaccination documentation section in my profile and the option to add record to my profile. If I click on that again it says I have already entered the sweep stake, but I do not see any indication that they already have my record.
Does anyone know how? I spent an hour on the phone with United, spoke to 2 supervisors and they have no idea.
One told me they have no way of seeing that I have uploaded the record, but if they can't see that I have uploaded, and I can't tell if it is received on their end, how do I know they have it? I can't even try to upload again.
Does anyone know how you can tell if the vaccine record is received?

For now, the sweepstakes notification is the only indication you have uploaded your vax card.

It is not clear how UA plans to make use of the vax card. To be honest, it does nothing useful now. It is believed UA is collecting this info to see if they can get enough to potential do something useful. Presently only a very countries will permit entry based on being vax'ed and that info you will have to provide that on entry.

So presently this is a data collection process by UA and unclear it will provide any travel benefits.

Well that's pretty good proof in my book. It has been received.

I do wonder if this is an exercise in futility though. While you have to type out the vax info, presumably UA need a human to go thru and verify each one. Or maybe a computer? This is quite a time intensive task for pax who likely will never fly ua. I wonder if they will only validate records for those with upcoming trips? Maybe in-source it to ticket agents on DoD? Or as you note, it could just be a pilot. Or psychology experiment!

Pay attention when entering your info. It seems this info goes into the same section of your account as your Known Traveler number and may erase that from your account. I noticed that it appeared to do that when I entered mine. Now, we are traveling today and my wifes TTN is missing from her account. She only noticed when she didnt get TSA Precheck today.

Mine is still there. What could have happened to your wife's reservation was somehow when reservation was made, TTN number was not auto populated. Which happened to me a couple of times.

I don't have a KTN, but I did noticed that my redress number which is on the same form as the KTN had disappeared shortly after uploading my vaccination certification. However I didn't do anything about it, and I've just gone and checked and it's correctly showing again.

Not sure if it was just a display issue at the time, or if they have done something to repopulate them.

My KTN still showed, but my redress # was missing. But honestly, I can't remember the last time I checked to see if it was there - so I cannot confirm it went missing when I uploaded the vaccine info. In any case, I re-populated it.

Ditto, but! Several other fields in my records where scrambled. My standard form of payment and some of my contact information are different.

Entered the sweepstakes by uploading my vaccination data yesterday, and just checked my account - my KTN is still there.

Entered mine last week. Entered Mrs BlueZebra yesterday. Checked our KTNs...both still there. Maybe they fixed the problem?

For those who have uploaded. I just scanned the first page or two of this thread in the last. Is it a scan like updating your passport page. Do you physically upload the image of the card. Im hearing issues about the iOS app as well. It doesnt seem that its going to be any type of electronic vaccine passport correct?

I may just do the Mall in way of entering
