Seems like the end of the month brings us opportunities to buy miles and get some bonus miles to sweeten the deal. Now it’s United’s turn! Until September 29, United is running a buy miles deal where the top bonus is 75% more miles. This offer is open to everyone, which is why it caught my eye in the first place. I also like that the 75% bonus kicks in starting at a 30,000 miles purchase.
A few of my friends and family members had hoped to use United miles for travel this holiday season, but they didn’t quite accrue enough miles, so they put some plans on hold. I never suggest they purchase miles without either needing to top off an account for a trip they are about to book, or have a specific trip in mind. In this case, this United deal will help my cousins travel to Hawaii :) It will also help a friend who needs to visit his mom in Japan!
United miles are flexible, with many routes and Star Alliance partners you can book travel with. Last year alone, I used them for trips to South America and Europe. Take a look at this offer now because it expires on September 29. Here are the complete terms and conditions of the offer:
Always do the math and see if it’s useful for your upcoming travel plans. Maybe you’ll even book a trip to someplace that’s not on the top of your list because now you’ll have a stash of United miles to use. Any questions, please let me know in the comments below.
