Your miles are worth 20% more on United Airlines this week

United Airlines is interested in helping you reduce the value of your Mileage Plus account with a one week promotion.

If you don't mind booking between October 12th and October 19th, for travel next year between January 10th and April 30th, you can save 20% on the miles required for your ticket.

Sadly, the promotion only applies to saver awards, and it only includes flights within the US, or flights from the US to Canada. There are also a couple of blackout dates.

The list of other restrictions is pretty long, but it doesn't look like they are making things that hard. Of course, the longer you wait, the smaller the chance is you'll find any available saver awards on the date and route you want.

The full promotion, and applicable rules and regulations can be found here.

Now, go drain that mileage account!
