United Airlines now allows air miles pooling
United Airlines has introduced MileagePlus miles pooling, a new way for MileagePlus members to contribute and combine their miles into a joint account.
Available on United.com, groups of up to five frequent flyer members can now share and redeem miles in a single linked account.
United allows any MileagePlus member – both relatives or close friends – to be in a pool with other members.
United is the first and only current major US airline to offer this feature.
We’re proud to be the first to allow our members to pool their miles with their loved ones and friends,” said Luc Bondar, COO of MileagePlus.
“MileagePlus miles pooling gives more flexibility to use miles with the people that matter most.”
MileagePlus miles pooling aims to make travel easier and affordable for families.
Even the youngest family members can contribute as there’s no minimum age to become a MileagePlus member.
MileagePlus miles pooling is now available to all MileagePlus members by logging in to their account on United.com.
The MileagePlus program is free to join here.
Frequent flyer members earn miles that never expire with every flight, through spending on the United Family of Cards from Chase, and by making purchases on MileagePlus Shopping .
Members can opt to fully cover a trip with their MileagePlus miles or use a combination of money and miles.
