Starwood AMEX Linky

Link your Northwest and Delta accounts and get 500 miles. Plus you’ll be able to transfer an unlimited amount miles back and forth for free.

25% Off Delta Business Elite Class Tickets

Lie-Flat Seats to Tel Aviv for 90K Miles

Delta and Northwest are running promotions for double miles when transferring miles to someone else’s Delta or Northwest account through 05/31/09

The fee for doing so is a penny per mile plus a $25 transaction fee on Northwest or a $30 transaction fee on Delta.

You can transfer up to 30,000 miles in a shot, which would give the recipient 60,000 total miles for a cost for $325 on Northwest or $330 on Delta. Of course charging it to a card like your Starwood AMEX will also net you 325-330 Starpoints on the transaction, bringing down the cost even further.

You can then transfer back the miles to your account, which will double them again. Be creative and you’ll be able to keep on going and going and going…

Northwest limits the amount of incoming miles via the inter-account transfer to 30,000 per year and the amount of outgoing miles via the inter-account transfer to 75,000 per year.

Delta limits the amount of incoming miles via the inter-account transfer to 300,000 per year and the amount of outgoing miles via the inter-account transfer to 150,000 per year.

In my experience the Northwest transfer occurs instantaneously, and the bonus miles will post immediately together with the transferred miles. The Delta transfer may take a day and the bonus miles will come within another day or two.

With this promotion you should be able to earn 90,000 Delta miles, or the amount of miles required for a Business Elite class trip to Tel Aviv during the current mileage ticket promo, for under $1,000.

Worldperks University Linky

Update: This bonus has been extended until 04/30!

Originally posted on 02/01:

You can now transfer miles between Delta and Northwest in either direction for free, as many times as you want!

You need to link the accounts first, and you will get 500 miles just for linking the accounts!
Although the description of the offer implies that you need to actually transfer miles to get the miles, the terms make it clear that you only need to link the accounts.

Offer Linky

Terms:
“Members of the SkyMiles and WorldPerks programs may link their accounts and receive a one-time bonus of 500 bonus miles. To be eligible for this offer, the member will need to complete the linking process application on delta.com between January 29, 2009 and March 15, 2009. Bonus miles will post the member’s SkyMiles account 4-6 weeks following the end of the promotion, March 15, 2009.”

I have been busily booking up tickets for friends and family on Delta’s fabulous 25% off business elite mileage tickets sale.

While I don’t think much of the 72,000 mile offering in coach to TLV, the 90,000 mile business elite offering is quite nice. It didn’t take much to convince my father in-law to pay the $100 redeposit fee and an extra 10,000 miles to cancel his coach MCI-TLV ticket and rebook it in business elite.

At any rate on select dates Delta will be flying their brand new 777-200LR aircraft to Tel Aviv which has the brand new lie-flat Business Elite seats. I was just able to snag some seats for my Aunt and Uncle on the lie-flats at the 90k rate!

Here are some links to give you an idea of the difference between Delta’s old and new Business Elite seats:

Old Business Elite

New Business Elite (777-200LR)

And finally a picture of good ole’ cattle class (where you should never have to sit if you play your miles right)

I see the 7770-200LR aircraft operating on the following dates for example:
JFK-TLV:
05/21
05/23
05/25
05/27
05/29
05/31
06/02
ATL-TLV:
05/31
TLV-JFK:
05/23
05/25
05/27
05/31
06/02
You have to click on “view seats” to see if it is listed as a 777-200LR. If you find more dates be sure to post!

Update: AA and United now both have fares between Boston and Los Angeles for $79+ each way for a total of just $179 round trip with all taxes! A RT flight will earn 15,666 redeemable miles and 10,444 elite qualifying miles!

Originally posted on 03/31:

AA has filed fares for $99 each way between Boston and Los Angeles, San Francisco, or San Diego.
With all taxes the round-trip price should be about $219. Same-day turnarounds are permitted.
Travel is valid between 04/29 and 06/17. Travel on Sundays and Fridays will be more.
Sample valid flight:
05/05, AA192, LAX-BOS, 10:15pm-6:50am.
05/06, AA25, BOS-LAX, 8:20am-11:45am.

Use aa.com’s “price and schedule” feature for help finding cheap days to fly.

You can combine 2 great promotions on these routes.
-Triple Redeemable miles.
-Double elite miles.

Thus the miles earned for non-elites, for a single RT flight, Boston to/from:
-Los Angeles: 15,666 redeemable miles, 10,444 elite qualifying miles.
-San Francisco: 16,224 redeemable miles, 10,816 elite qualifying miles.
-San Diego: 15,528 redeemable miles, 10,351 elite qualifying miles.
Of course Gold elites will also earn their 25% redeemable mileage bonus, and Platinum/EXP elites will earn their 100% redeemable mileage bonus.

There is no limit to the number of bonus miles that can be earned.

-Gold elite can be earned on AA by earning 25,000 elite qualifying miles in a calender year.
-Platinum elite can be earned on AA by earning 50,000 elite qualifying miles in a calender year.
-Executive Platinum elite can be earned on AA by earning 100,000 elite qualifying miles in a calender year.
Elite status earned by flying in 2009 would last until 02/28/11.

Lifetime Gold elite status can also be earned by banking 1,000,000 redeemable elite miles. Lifetime Platinum elite status is earned by banking 2,000,000 redeemable elite miles. AA is the only airline that counts redeemable elite miles (as opposed to elite qualifying miles) for earning million miler status.

Good luck, and if you do go (or are considering going) on a mileage run be sure to write about it in the comments!

Starwood AMEX Linky (Get 10,000 Starpoints for signing up, and 15,000 Bonus Starpoints after spending $15,000 within 6 months)

US Mint Direct Ship Coin Roll Offer Linky

I’ve written in the past about some of my escapades in cashing in thousands of coins for the sole purpose of gaining Starpoints.

The way it works is that you can order 500 $1 coins of each US President and charge it to any credit card. The shipping fee is waived on the final checkout page. All you need to do then is deposit it at your local bank.

The Mint now has $1 Native American coins in stock with a 5,000 coin limit!

Considering that my stay in a ~$1,000/night terrace suite at the Westin LAX cost me just 3,500 Starpoints it’s not totally insane to shlep 100 pounds worth of coins in 2 boxes to my local bank to earn 5,000 Starpoints, right?

The best part was that Chase bank (where I just picked up over 28,000 miles opening an account) didn’t even bat an eye at the coins, they took the 2 boxes along with my US Mint receipt for 5,000 $1 coins and promptly gave me a $5,000 receipt for my deposit. I was in and out with 30 seconds!

Chase counts incoming ACH transfers from other banks and incoming paypal/google checkout revenues as direct deposits!

The miles for this offer posted for me within a month of making an incoming ACH transfer from another bank account!

Continental Offer Linky

-10,000 miles for opening up the checking account with direct deposit.

-11,000 miles for opening a Continental/Chase debit card. ($25 annual fee)

-7,500 miles for adding 3 additional cardholders with no annual fee.
