*A Mileage Run out of TLV?
« on: October 20, 2013, 05:11:31 AM »
Need 5K to hit UA Gold for 2013 before new rules come into effect for 2014...any ideas for cheap ways to rack up 5,000 miles out of TLV...?

I suppose I could change my address to outside US on UA account but don't know if that'll do the trick to avoid rule changes...

Thx

sure do :)

its great!

UA Gold would save hassle of using A3 # and changing to UA #...its a small hassle when going intl with those check in kiosks that dont allow mileage # changes on user end..plus grant upgrades vs A3 status

Your best bet may be to fly to Greece, and then see what cheap routes Aegean offers from there (assuming the accrual is 100%).
ex-TLV seems to normally be very expensive.

All A3 flight only give a flat amount of miles.
