This week how about some headphones. These are lightweight, rechargeable and will sync up with most devices that work with Bluetooth to let you enjoy music etc. with no cord. You can get more details from the MFG. site if you would like.
Also included this week, some Delta Points swag as well. Not to sound like a broken record (what’s a record?) but the T&C and rules are the same each week and are HERE.
On to today’s question. Very soon US Air will be no more as the airline becomes one behemoth airline under the American Air name. We should know Citi has been chosen to be the main card to provide points to American flyers. But, for a short time longer, US Air points are still an option that will become AA points at some point. The current solid offer is:
➲ The US Airways® Premier World MasterCard®
- Earn 40,000 bonus miles after your first purchase and payment of the $89 annual fee*
- First checked bag free on eligible bags for you and up to four companions on domestic US Airways operated flights
- One companion certificate good for up to 2 guests to travel with you on a US Airways operated flight at $99 each, plus taxes and fees
- Priority boarding Zone 2 on US Airways operated flights
- Redeem miles for award travel on US Airways and American Airlines booked through usairways.com or US Airways Reservations
- Earn miles on every purchase with 2 miles for every $1 you spend on US Airways purchases and 1 mile for every $1 on purchases everywhere else
- Please see terms and conditions for complete details
The Annual fee for this card is $89 per year.
Between this and the 100,000 point AA card (not my link at bottom of page) you are talking, after spend, over 150,000 points! Not all bad on two cards. My question for you this weekend, for a shot via Random.org to win this week’s swag is:
- Are you adding US Air points while you still can?
Yes or No is all I need but as always if you want to add more you can. Have a great weekend everyone! – Rene

No. I don’t fly US Air.
No, although you are giving me 2nd thoughts based on this post.
No
Not at this time. Thanks
No
Nope! No desire for that product.
Yes but only when there are spend bonuses associated with my US Airways MasterCard.
Yes, I have the AA card and I think the US Airways card would be a great addition
While they last.

I’m still a newbie in this game and probably won’t jump on this one.
Yes !!
Of course I am but I think I am tapped out on USAir cards for now.
No way!!
Nope!
Very unlikely, have had more miserable experiences with US Air than unremarkable ones.
YES. I’m still using my US Air Premiere World MC too
Nope…stuck with Delta.
No. All done with USAirways
Yes, they are the only airline that flies nonstop from PHX to OGG (Maui), so we’re using them in August. Delta is pretty useless to get from PHX to anywhere in Hawaii without extra stops.
No, this one is not on my radar.

I’m sticking with Delta and Southwest for now until they drive me away. Living in the Atlanta area, they are just convenient!

Not planning on it.
Don’t think so. Just blew my US miles on a flight to Rome, so nothing left.
No, I got 45k points when I got the US Barclay’s card last year.
No
Yes. Still have the old Bank of America US Air visa and just applied for the Barclay MC last week. I’m pretty much tied into Delta and Us Air because of the regional airport I live closest to.

I intend to spend a little time to look into it and see if the unwaved fee could be worth it
No, gotta keep focused.

Yes I tried to get the card but as I had one years ago and closed it
They turned me down!
Adding us air miles as fast as I can
No I collect UA points with my star alliance trips and America West heritage just makes me avoid both of these guys as much as possible.
Nope, dont fly US Airways
Not at this time. Might go AA if they stronger at Newark.
I added this card a month ago as an alternative to Delta on some vacation flights. Since I do not travel for business anymore and have lost Medallion status, I am now shopping price and flight times again with more diligence.
No, I’ve got 2 US Air cards already and need to preserve my Barclay’s opportunities for their other cards.
Yes, when not flying Delta out of MSP. The prices are sometime more competitive.

Absolutely, especially when I see reasonable prices.
no
Yes. They recently gave me a 15k bonus for $750 a month spending for 3 months.
Yes. My local airport served by Delta and US Airways. While in the past I have concentrated almost solely on Delta, their new 2015 rules have me looking harder at the USAirways/AA product.

Yes
No, I’m working on UR points and then will try for the AAExecutive card.
No
Yes I am adding US Air miles when I possible
Heck No.
While I don’t have an issue per se with AA, I will not give US Air a dime of my money/ I had switched from Delta to Usair when DL was only offering 1/2 mqm on discounted fairs. I had my status on them for a couple of years and they screwed me over one too many times. I was trying to get home for my son’s birthday and the ticket counter changed my flight, but printer had jammed, so they told me to go to the gate with my previous boarding pass. Get to the gate and GA wouldn’t let me one the plane, she refused to even look me up, let other people on and then closed the doors.. Plane left with empty seats….
I bitched had her to the point where her boss came over and gave me a lunch voucher and an apology. The same GA was at the services desk, when I asked her for the status of my upgrade on the original flight and she looked me up.
She looks at me and says, oh I was supposed to let you on the other flight, now it shows you missed your flight and your original seats have been given to someone else… She rebooked me in a middle seat and said “I would write a letter if I were you”…. Havent flown them since….
My Avis rentals went to US, just to prevent the 100k plus miles sitting there from expiring. I havean AA card from citi.
Gregg
no!
Nope
No I’m not. Need to work on my delta reserve spend first. Thanks!
Nope. I probably should, but I’m focusing all my spend on my Delta Amex to get the MQM bonus.
No. I only fly Delta.
No
No,points devalued on AA
Of course.
Yup
Yes
No, hoping the points I still have convert to AA points soon, so I can continue getting the newspaper for points.
yes, at least from credit card spend. i got the us airways card just after the merger was announced… will wait until the account merge with AA and then afterwards get an AA credit card.
No, I thought about it but decided that the new AA won’t serve enough routes with better and/or options than DL/B6.
Yes! Have both cards and received 150K points.
No, don’t use those carrriers. Thinking of adding Virgin card since miles are usable on Delta.
No. AA miles are not very valuable to me at this time.
yes, but not often. If their mall has the best return, I’ll use them.
No, I don’t fly US air
not any more since I prefer other options
They have the best reps for confusing them into cheaper awards – so yes still building
No
Of course ! Whereas I have not flown US Air for some time; this is a great way to add to AA account. Also applied for 100K offer from Citi. Now for some serious spending (thank goodness, the US Air card only requires “first spend” and the annual fee.
Nope, already have one and just opened a Ink, so that’s all for me for a while!
have the AA card, will get the US Air also. Might cancel when the annual fee is applied.
No, I gave up on both airlines
Yes. I just got the US Air MasterCard this week. From your link!
No. Already have the card though
no, not yet
I have racked up 110k AA miles but no US miles!
No not me, Delta is where I wanna be…
Nope! Just AA miles
