Score some free Aegean Miles+Bonus Miles
Greece’s Aegean Airlines is celebrating 20 years of offering their Miles+Bonus frequent flyer program and members (free to join) have the opportunity to win some free miles – it can be anywhere from 500 miles to 2,000,000 miles! Personally I won 3,000 miles!
Aegean has fallen from the spotlight of the 00’s when the program was one of the best and easiest for earning Star Alliance Gold status. In fact they still have one of the lowest requirements but they now have a rule that you need to have four flights with them so it does make it very difficult for Canadians to earn who aren’t flying to/from/within Greece.
Anyways, you should still enter the contest as their miles don’t expire and they run free miles offers here and there so you can build up your balance slowly but surely. For me with the 3,000 miles that I just won I have over 10,000 miles. This is after years of free offers and crediting a single Air Canada flight many years ago for some sort of challenge. I just need to get that balance to 12,500 so I can redeem for a one way flight on Air Canada within North America!
