Receive 1,000 Free Miles in any of 7 airline programs when you join Marriott Rewards + earn Double Miles for stays

Written by Patrick Sojka @ Frequent Flyer Bonuses

We see the return of Marriott’s great new member bonus for those who want to credit Marriott stays to airline programs! Right now when you join Marriott Rewards via the special link below you’ll earn Double Miles on all your stays in any one of 7 airline programs over the summer. The difference with the 2017 version of this promotion is that when you join Marriott will throw in 1,000 miles for doing so! There is some discrepancy in the terms of the promotion however, the landing page says this ends August 31 while the T&C’s state December 31. Until that gets clarified I would err on the side of caution and join and complete stays before August 31.

Offer details:
1,000 Free + Double Airline Miles on all your Marriott stays when you join Marriott Rewards. Maximum of 35,000 bonus miles awarded. Receive 1,000 miles just for joining. Full details and Online Registration (Registration is required) Until Aug 31, 17
(1,000 bonus miles will be awarded at the end of the month in which enrollment occurred)

Participating Airlines:
Etihad Guest Qatar Privilege Club
Avianca-TACA LifeMiles
Aeromexico ClubPremier
British Airways Executive Club
Lufthansa Miles & More
Aeroplan

If miles aren’t your preference remember there is always the Marriott New Member Bonus where you can earn a free night at a category 1 – 5 hotel after your 2nd paid stay at any Marriott Hotels Worldwide.
