United Airlines
* United is offering up to 10K bonus miles on travel between Washington DC and Kuwait City
US Airways
* Here you can get 10K bonus miles for even refinincing your mortgage — in this case with lender being lendingtree.com
BUT PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT IDEA IS — STICK TO ONE AIRLINE OR AIRLINES THAT ARE MEMBERS OF THE SAME ALLIANCE.
Always give your frequent flyer number — not only at airlines, but also at Hotels, Rental car agencies, in some cases restaurants.
Happy Travels!
