Up To 100% Bonus On Purchased US Airways Miles

US Airways seems to run some sort of promotion on the purchase or sharing of miles almost every month. Often it’s just a straight 100% bonus on purchased miles, sometimes it’s a tiered bonus, and sometimes they offer a 100% bonus on shared miles (which used to be the most lucrative promotion by far, though during the last round of this promotion they raised the cost).


US Airways just announced their September Buy Miles promotion, which runs through September 30, 2014. This month they’re offering up to a 100% bonus on purchased miles. You do have to log-in before it will show you the bonus, though all the accounts I manage seem to have the same offer.
