I wonder if Delta and South West will join in on the doubling.

I wonder if Delta and South West will join in on the doubling.

Delta will, SWA won't (it's an LCC).

BTW, I've registered for the UA promo, bought a cheap UA return ticket LHR-LAX-SYD for GBP 620 and upgraded the outward journey to business class (couldn't upgrade all of the return as I've now run out of SW upgrade certs for the year).

As a result I will reach 150,000 EQM for this year (2 additional SWU's) and will also receive triple miles credit for the return journey in July.

Pretty good really for a fare that can't be beat out of OZ.

Very good fare. United Airlines - Australia sale starting from as low as £615

Is it one SWU for the entire journey or two?
