Earlier this month, we wrote about Delta was launching a promotion, where you could earn 10,000 bonus miles for flying first class, as well as a less lucrative offer where you could earn 2,500 Bonus Delta SkyMiles for Flying First Class.
Well, it appears the latest (targeted) offer is that Delta wants to pay you $150 for flying them in first class, now through October 31, 2015.
Choose luxury—and receive a $150 Delta e-certificate — when you register for this exclusive offer, then book and fly in First Class by October 31st. Treat yourself to personalized service and perks that turn air time into “me” time.
How to book and earn:
- Register for the offer by October 31st.
- Purchase a domestic round-trip Delta or Delta Connection First Class ticket, or visit My Trips to upgrade* an existing domestic round-trip reservation.
- Earn a $150 Delta e-certificate for each domestic round-trip flight purchased and flown in First Class through October 31, 2015.

Targeted..
What is the point in publicizing these targeted offers when most are not included and those that are have received email promotions notifying them? This is clickbait at its most tacky and useless. I had vowed not to fall for this anymore, but tonight fell prey. It is the last time.
I’m OK with sending these targeted offers as long as it says (TARGETED) in the headline and there’s an upfront disclosure. There’s no harm in trying to register (except for IHG) and you never know if you’ll stumble upon a bonus.
