HeroMiles: The best present I'm giving this year!
Edited on Thu Dec-18-03 09:05 PM by JulieRB
Okay, everyone. It's time to give a gift to someone you've never met, and it won't cost you a cent!

Do you have a frequent flyer account that has a few extra miles in it? Good! Go to http://www.heromiles.com, find a participating airline. Call them, write them, fax them. Give away some of your miles so a soldier can make it home to his or her family and friends this holiday season, and NOT blow the little money they might have on a last-minute ticket...

Thanks to United's matching my 13,000 miles, someone's getting a free ticket home!

FWIW, I'm alerting to have this put in the Lounge--it's dropping fast here. No offense intended.

2. Thanks, blondeatlast!
I thought it would get more exposure here, but I'll be happy if people are reading it, no matter where it is!

Happy Holidays, and I'll tell you, it's done a lot for my mood to think I did something nice for someone I'll probably never meet :).

:toast: to you, too!

4. Yes, but
the funds *still* haven't been released. (Are any of us surprised by this?)

I don't mind helping out.
