This is great for me. One more trip to BKK and I should be able to wrap up 1K for the year.

Cool deal, guess I'll qualify for 1K faster than normal..that's about all this promo does for me though.

[QUOTE=ua_to_ord;11440027]Wow -- this makes 1K for $1800 a distinct possibility, requiring only 3 well-routed LAX/SFO-SYD/MEL roundtrips on the K fare currently receiving attention in the MR forum. And that fare is available during July, when some will be enjoying double RDMs from last year's Elite Choice promotion. [/QUOT

Promo Date ends on June 15th. Trip in July will not count.

UA codeshare

This is for any UA Metal flights right? So even if you are on a LH or BMI or whatever codeshare flight on UA Metal it would qualify?

Cancel if you're within 24 hours!!! It won't cost you anything.

I have been asking myself why I shouldn't buy a Z class ticket to either BKK or SIN and reach PE with one trip. I might just pull the trigger.

I'm wondering the same thing, I can get a good r/t on US, with 2 of the legs on UA metal (us codeshare).

Exclamation heads up on the registration link

registered myself, goalie-sis and goalie parents using the link provided by United PR in the first post and even tho it shows the "thank you for registering..." screen after clicking on the link to reigster, it does not to appear to have taken....

i logged into my a/c and looked under "my promotions" and it showed i was not registered with a "register now" button active. once i clicked on it and did a refresh it showed me as registered. i did the same for goalie-sis and goalie-parents and lo and behold, they were not registered either. i advise checking your a/c's....

A LHR-LAX ticket in B class in about $923. This is 10,912 miles. Add the 50% B fare bonus you can get 16,368 miles. If you count this double EQM offer total you can get 32,736 miles for only $923. Talk about a miles run!

Sure glad I didn't go ahead with that West Coast booking I had on hold until 10p last night. It expired and I rebooked today...plus I've got at least three ORD-SFO/LAX runs between now and 6/15. I might make it back to 1P again this year regardless of whether I get an int'l trip in. ^

No, any route. You have one year from the original ticket purchase, not the day of travel or date of cancelation.

Looks like the emails are going out - my GM brother has received it, though neither I nor + 1 has.

Is there an echo in here?

Looks like it's time to come back and work on my UA lifetime status, though it's going to be painful as a "general member". Already have 100K booked with AA for the year to retain status there.
