You could earn up to 3,000 bonus Mileage Plan miles with the Dash For Miles challenge from Alaska Airlines simply by engaging in at least one activity with each of three different partners through Saturday, September 30, 2017 — but you are required to register for this promotion prior to the first qualifying transaction.
Earn Up to 3,000 Bonus Mileage Plan Miles With the Dash For Miles Challenge
The transactions — two of which have been recently covered here at The Gate — are as follows:
- Mileage Plan Dining Earn three Mileage Plan miles per dollar at greater than 11,000 participating restaurants
- Mileage Plan Shopping Earn Mileage Plan miles at greater than 850 stores via the Internet — and you can earn up to 1,000 additional bonus miles with this back-to-school offer through Friday, August 18, 2017:
- 300 bonus Mileage Plan miles when you spend a minimum of $125.00 shopping
- 1,000 bonus Mileage Plan miles when you spend a minimum of $350.00 shopping
- The Opinion Terminal Speak your mind and earn a minimum of 400 Mileage Plan miles after you join and complete your first survey — although some readers of The Gate have reportedly experienced some issues participating in this offer
Select Terms and Conditions
Bonus Mileage Plan miles will be awarded within six weeks of the last qualifying transaction posting to your account and do not count towards Mileage Plan elite level status.
Other terms and conditions — including all terms and conditions of the Mileage Plan frequent flier loyalty program — apply.
Summary
I received my e-mail message from Alaska Airlines at 12:33 earlier this afternoon — and at that time, I already reported on the back-to-school bonus offer.
Although this offer is fairly straightforward and can potentially be rewarding, I find it slightly unfair that this challenge was announced after the two aforementioned offers — because anyone who has participated in them will have to participate in them yet again after registering for this offer in order to take full advantage of it.
Fortunately, I had not yet registered for any of the offers; but I intend to participate to earn bonus Mileage Plan miles.
