18 miles per dollar spent at Bookingbuddy.com (Likely Mistake)
« on: February 25, 2011, 04:11:11 PM »
You can earn 18 miles per dollar spent through the U.S. Air dividend miles shopping mall for purchases made through bookingbuddy.com from the US air dividend miles website.  Here is the link

Essentially for a $1400 ticket u will get 25,200 miles; enough for a roundtrip ticket anywhere in the US.

It's a mistake.  It's just 18 miles per dollar of revenue that bookingbuddy gets for the referral, which is usually just a buck or 2.
That's $1,400 ticket will get you a whopping 18 miles, maybe 36 miles.
Good luck getting the 25,000 out of USeless.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

What does that prove, that people there who know what they're talking about also think it's a mistake?  Read the 2nd page there.

Definitely a mistake IMHO.

Sure, but he got nothing until after "following up with a screenshot"
Good luck, sounds like a massive YMMV.
