Your travel must be completed no later than Dec. 9 to qualify. Only itineraries that involve flights operated by United or United Express are eligible. If you booked your flights using miles or a combination of miles and money, you won&#8217;t receive the bonus Marriott points.<\/p>\n<p>These accruals are in addition to your standard earnings in the MileagePlus program.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&#10;        EmailSignUp_container__70lh2&#10;        undefined&#10;        EmailSignUp_isLoading__zGkU5&#10;      \"><picture><source media=\"screen and (max-width: 767px)\" srcset=\"\/images\/EmailSignUp\/daily-mob.svg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/images\/EmailSignUp\/daily-dt.svg\"\/><\/picture>\n<div class=\"EmailSignUp_form__cnneL\">\n<p>Daily Newsletter<\/p>\n<p>Reward your inbox with the TPG Daily newsletter<\/p>\n<p>Join over 700,000 readers for breaking news, in-depth guides and exclusive deals from TPG\u2019s experts<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/guide\/monthly-valuations\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">valuations<\/a> peg 750 Marriott points at $6.30, so depending on the price of your itinerary, this could be a decent addition.<\/p>\n<h3>Bonus United miles on Marriott stays<\/h3>\n<p>If you qualify for this offer, you will earn 500 United MileagePlus miles for each eligible stay at Marriott Bonvoy participating hotels. The stay must be completed by Dec. 9, with at least one night checked in before that date. Qualifying stays do not include point purchases or redemptions and must be paid in cash.<\/p>\n<p>Again, these accruals are in addition to your standard earnings with Marriott Bonvoy.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/news\/new-data-driven-valuations\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TPG values<\/a> 500 United miles at $7.25, so that can be a nice boost to your MileagePlus balance on discounted Marriott stays.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/guide\/how-to-earn-miles-united-airlines-mileageplus\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Flights, credit cards and more: How to earn miles with the United MileagePlus program<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"a-few-notes\" class=\"jsx-3480274316 anchor\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"jsx-3480274316\">A few notes<\/h2>\n<p>Bonvoy members must have their earning preference set to hotel points instead of airline miles to receive bonus points for United flights. In addition, this bonus applies once for each eligible itinerary. As a result, a round-trip United flight would only earn you 750 Marriott points \u2014 no matter the price. In addition, award tickets or those booked with a combination of miles and money aren&#8217;t eligible.<\/p>\n<p>Price also doesn&#8217;t factor into the mileage you can earn on a Marriott stay, as a $100 stay at a budget Marriott brand would earn the same 500 United miles as a $2,000 stay at a St. Regis or Ritz-Carlton. Nevertheless, it only takes a few seconds to register, so there&#8217;s no harm in doing so.<\/p>\n<p>If you had flights or stays booked prior to Oct. 10 (the start of the promotion), you can still receive the bonus points or miles \u2014 as long as your flight or hotel stay begins prior to Dec. 9.<\/p>\n<p>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/uat.travel-partner.marriott.com\/creative\/united\/en-us\/promo-register\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the promotion&#8217;s landing page<\/a> for the full terms and conditions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/guide\/marriott-85000-point-certificate\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">8 places to maximize an 85,000-point Marriott award night certificate<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"bottom-line\" class=\"jsx-3480274316 anchor\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"jsx-3480274316\">Bottom line<\/h2>\n<p>This promotion with Marriott and United resembles the <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/news\/link-american-hyatt-accounts\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">partnership between American Airlines and Hyatt<\/a>, allowing dual elite members to earn additional points when transacting with either company. Hyatt elite members can earn bonus points for American flights (1 point per dollar spent), while American elite members can earn extra AAdvantage miles for Hyatt stays (1 mile per dollar). Additionally, they frequently offer <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/news\/hyatt-american-elite-status-offers\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">status matches or fast-track offers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Hyatt-AA integration applies to all elite members in both programs, whereas this is limited to higher-tier elite members.<\/p>\n<p>That said, it&#8217;s great to see a new offer for frequent travelers to earn even more rewards on their trips \u2014 and hopefully, it&#8217;s just the beginning of an even better Marriott-United partnership to further engage elite members and enhance earning rates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since the inception of Marriott Bonvoy in 2018, Titanium and Ambassador Elite members have been eligible for United Airlines&#8217; entry-level Premier Silver status through the RewardsPlus partnership.
