Route bonus points on offer for United's SFO-Paris re-launch

February 14, 2013

Free bonus points if you are going to be flying on United Airlines‘ new (again) San Francisco – Paris service during the first 6 weeks of service. Get a 100% bonus for full-fare tickets (B and higher) and 50% for nearly all discount fares. The N and G buckets – cheapest 2 United offers – aren’t in the list but I also don’t think that they are available on transatlantic routes so probably not a huge deal.

Registration is required.

Other fine print details:

Enjoy our new nonstop service between San Francisco (SFO) and Paris Charles De Gaulle International (CDG), plus earn 100% bonus award miles in United Global First℠, United BusinessFirst® and full-fare United Economy® (F, A, J, C, D, Z, P, Y and B fare classes), or 50% bonus award miles in discounted United Economy (M, E, U, H, Q, V, W, S, T, L and K fare classes).

    united just cancelled the non stop to CDG!

  2. It is not cancelled, Barry, just delayed. It is going to start ~3 weeks later than initially planned due to the issues with the 787 Dreamliner being grounded.
