In this roundup, we’re featuring ways to earn up to 17,500 bonus miles with Northwest, reduced award travel offers from two airlines, and route-specific bonus mile offers. There’s also a promotion from Star Alliance with which you can earn a free round of golf.
Alaska
You can redeem just 7,500 miles for one-way award travel within the state of Alaska. You must book online because award travel in Alaska is 10,000 miles each way otherwise.
American
Earn double miles on flights between Raleigh/Durham and Kansas City, MO; Jacksonville; or Louisville from May 1 through July 31.
Economy award tickets are available from Dallas (Love) for 15,000 miles to the following cities: St. Louis; Kansas City, MO; Austin; and San Antonio. This offer is valid for travel through June 30.
Continental
You can earn double miles and free Sunday rentals from Budget. If you rent for four consecutive days and include a Sunday, your Sunday rental will be free. You must book through the Budget website and provide coupon #TUNZ003, as well as your OnePass account number. This offer is valid through May 6.
Frontier
Frontier is unveiling many new routes this spring and offering double miles on all of them during their respective introductory periods. These routes include flights between Denver and Hartford, Louisville, Memphis, Vancouver, and Jacksonville, as well as between Sacramento or San Jose and Cabo San Lucas, between Memphis and Las Vegas or Orlando, and between Dallas/Ft. Worth and Mazatlan. Check the website for specific validity dates.
Northwest
Earn up to 17,500 bonus miles if up to five of your friends fly on Northwest by May 31. For each friend that flies, you’ll earn 2,500 for his or her first flight, and 500 miles for each subsequent flight (up to three flights). Your friend will also earn bonus miles: 2,500 for the first flight, 5,000 for the second, and 10,000 for the third. This means that both of you can earn up to 17,500 bonus miles. The only catch is that your friends have to sign up for WorldPerks, and must not have earned any WorldPerks miles since 2005.
Star Alliance
If you’re a member of a Star Alliance frequent flyer club, and book and fly a qualifying international flight by May 31, you’ll be eligible to receive a voucher for a free round of golf at some of the world’s premier courses. Booking classes for this promotion vary by airline; the Star Alliance website has a complete list of restrictions as well as specifics for redeeming your golf voucher.
United
You’ll earn 1,500 bonus miles when you purchase and fly any two qualifying one-way segments or single round-trip between the U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico, or the U.S. Virgin Islands and London (Heathrow) through May 17. This offer is valid in booking classes Y, B, M, H, Q, E, U, and V. You may earn this bonus on a maximum of three round-trips or their equivalent.
Earn 1,000 United bonus miles on flights between New York (LaGuardia) and Halifax on Air Canada Jazz. This offer is valid in booking classes Y, M, U, B, H, V, Q, L, and A. The bonus can be earned an unlimited number of times through May 31.
