Frequent Miler's latest team challenge, Million Mile Madness, is happening now! Follow us as Greg, Nick, and Stephen compete to earn 1 Million SAS miles by flying 15 airlines before November 23rd. Who will complete the challenge with the most Speed, Affordability, and Style?
Barclaycard is offering US Airways cardholders a 50% bonus on all miles earned from using the card. With this offer, the card will earn 1.5 miles per dollar spent on everyday purchases during the promotion.
According to the terms, the offer is targeted, but I received it on all of my family’s cards. Other have reported receiving it on all of their cards as well, so it seems to be widely available.
To see if you have been targeted, login to your US Airways Mastercard account and look for a banner that says “Register now to earn 50% more miles.” It is located on the right side under the “Barclaycard extras” tab.
Key Offer Terms:
- Register by June 30, 2015
- Bonus is earned on purchases from March 1, 2015 through June 30, 2015
- Maximum bonus of 10,000 miles

Should we cancel the Barclay US Airways now so we can get the bonus later by applying for the AVIATOR product? What do you suggest?
Thanks in advance.
*** For those that don’t see the offer – According to customer service everyone w/ a US Air card can get this bonus!! Just call in! Here is the response I got from customer service to my secure message asking about the offer since I didn’t see it in my account online.

Actually a great promo. May as well max this and go for the 10k eqm.
Someone mentioned getting 10k EQM/PQM for spending ($25k) on this card. Can anyone confirm this is true (or not)? I seem to recall that is a feature that no longer exists with this card. Thanks.
Finally targeted for a Barclay’s promo. Thanks for the head’s up!!
How does this work with the US Airways bonus category spending? Will you earn 3 miles per dollar or 2.5?
only done 3000 on this card on redbird. no cash advance, earned miles. no warnings yet…
that’s certainly lovely news, thanks Sam!
I am surprised nobody did but let me be the first one to ask: how are Barclay cards doing when it comes to loading Redbirds? Cash Advance Fees? Warnings from them? Account closures even?
