"United Airlines Introduces MileagePlus Mile Pooling for Travelers"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Fox Business
United Airlines now allows groups of up to five MileagePlus members to combine and redeem their airline miles into one linked account, aiming to alleviate the financial burden of travel for families and friends. The program is free to join and will not affect an individual's Premier status, and it comes after United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby addressed recent incidents involving the airline's planes. This move follows similar programs already available from JetBlue, Frontier, and Spirit, and is designed to encourage more passengers to join the loyalty program ahead of the summer travel season.
