A great way to earn easy miles and points is with the various airline & hotel dining programs. However, one major problem that I’ve mentioned in the past is the limited amount of restaurants that participate close to home.
Odds are you won’t earn tons of points through the dining programs but they are a good way to earn some extra miles/ points and a great way to extend your accounts expiration dates.
I just received an e-mail from United MileagePlus Dining which also applies to all of the other dining program accounts.
