In the example, United pays MPH at least 1.2 cent per mile and partners pay United 2 cents per mile. When a customer redeems miles MPH pays United 1 cent per mile.
Do the partners pay United 2 cents per mile or do they pay MPH?
It seems to be missing a lot of commas. I emailed you "track changes" version where I made a number of grammatical changes. Nothing substantive though, so ignore it if you were only looking for United-related input.
Even if you make a redemption where you get a value of 5 cents per mile, it still doesn’t cost United more than 1 cent per mile, and that’s how mileage programs are lucrative for all parties involved.
I'm an anti-commite.
Shouldn't it be MPH?
"Odds are that they pay less than that amount, but on the other hand, banks are willing to pay a premium to get exclusivity and airlines have a lot of leverage to sell that exclusivity."How many banks have paid a premium to buy airlines?
I suppose UA or MPH
Banks should just launch their own airline at this point, just to sell credit cards.
I’m not quite sure how San Francisco can make up 7% of the over 100MM MileagePlus members, considering that the entire San Jose–San Francisco–Oakland, CA Combined Statistical Area only has 4.7MM people and 7% of the program would mean multiple accounts for every single resident of that region. Same goes for several other cities listed.
