Random 1,000 Miles
So, I just got an e-mail from US Airways that says:
"Miles make you smile...
...And they get you where you want to be
We know you love award travel...and we love seeing you happy! So, we added 1,000 bonus miles to your account.* We hope these miles get you a little closer to your next award trip. Keep flying and using Dividend Miles partners and youll be on your way in no time! "
Anyone else get this? I still don't see the miles posted in my account though.

I actually have zero status. I have 5 flights with them this year.

No status. I have 2 segments so far this year. Last year this time I had 8.

Random, indeed. I got the same email tonight at 9:09pm EDT. I figured it must have been yet another random advertisement, but was surprised to see the "1,000 miles bonus" bit.
As far as how or why this was targeted,...I have not flown US Air since 10/2009,....before that, maybe 2007. I decided a few years back that I wouldn't be flying with them anymore, and if I did, I would send all my miles to my United FFP.
Maybe that is why I got this,...in an attempt to get me back? I only have enough miles for a single RT award ticket at this point, and whenever I use that, I may close my account. We'll see.
As far as more recent, non-flying activity, I did download and install the new Shopping Toolbar, so maybe that prompted this random bonus?
FYI,...Miles have not posted yet.
Regardless, thanks US Air.

I got the email as well. I have no status, am a club member, and even though I fly constantly, it's as a non-rev. But hey, 1k bonus miles I'm down with that! :-)

I got it too. And no miles posted yet. No status for me. I was Gold for 2 years and then down to Silver for 2 years which ended in 2010. Even though routes and fares are tempting at times for me in DC, I have vowed to never to fly US again. This won't sway me. Bitter? Yes.

Just go the email as well. Haven't flown US in over 3 years. I did just buy their club membership recently during their big sale.

I got the email as well--but not miles
Doesn't look like it was targeted. As a current CP, I don't really fit in the category of those above who do not fly US at all.

I got the bonus miles email as well. I'm CP and have been travelling very frequently. Not sure of the targeting logic.

I got the email as well with no sign of the miles posting. I hit gold in 2009 (thanks to a vacation in Australia), dropped down to silver on 3/1, and most recently flew in January.

I got the email as well. It seems like the only thing any of us has in common is the fact that the miles have not posted to the account. And it clearly says that the miles are already in the account, not that they will be in the account in the future.
