Act now to earn up to 999 free Miles & More miles through a promotion when you sign up for a trial of two weeks to the digital version of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung — otherwise known as F.A.Z — daily newspaper.
Ensure that you are first logged in to your Miles & More account prior to signing up for this offer.
Earn Up to 999 Free Miles & More Miles in December
Sign up for the free trial of two weeks before the following dates and you will receive:
- 999 Miles & More miles until 8 December 2016
- 799 Miles & More miles until 22 December 2016
- 599 Miles & More miles until 31 December 2016
Additional details pertaining to this offer are available here; but you must either understand how to read German or run the Internet web site through a translator.
This offer applies only to new customers who have not yet trialled the new F.A.Z digital offer.
Award Miles & More miles will be credited for only one order per household and per member of the Miles & More frequent flier loyalty program. The subscriber and the Miles & More member must be the same person.
Subscribe to Earn 60,000 Miles & More Miles — But…
If you like what Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung has to offer and you are willing to spend 838.80 euros — which is 69.90 euros per month — you can subscribe for a year to have the newspaper delivered to you; and as a result, you will receive 60,000 Miles & More miles…
…but this offer only applies to new customers and only to deliveries within Germany; so you will need a mailing address within Germany to be eligible for this subscription; and you must subscribe by Saturday, 31 December 2016.
The 60,000 Miles & More miles “can be quite valuable since you can book a roundtrip Lufthansa German Airlines Business Class ticket for 55,000 miles under the Meilenschnaeppchen program” and that “your cost per mile under the FAZ promo is only 1.4 cents”, according to this article written by Dennis of Lufthansa Flyer. “What I’ve done in the past is to send it to a friend as a gift, or perhaps have it sent to a Senior Citizen center, Nursing Home, or some other place that could benefit from your generosity.”
The mileage credit will occur within six weeks after the total amount has been paid; and the award miles will be credited within six months for only one order per household and per member of the Miles & More frequent flier loyalty program. The subscriber and the Miles & More member must be the same person. There must be a minimum of six months between the delivery or the final part of a delivery — in the case of several part deliveries — and a further order; but the offer ends automatically after 12 months.
“Even when you add the taxes/fees to redeem the ticket ($966 for Business / $370 for Economy) you are still well ahead”, according to the aforementioned article. “Consider that with taxes and cost of the subscription your Business Class ticket would only be about $1700-1900. For Economy Meilenschneppchen deals, you can get a roundtrip ticket for only 30,000 miles, so with the FAZ deal you would get enough miles for 2 roundtrip tickets for only $1500-1700 (1 x 840 for FAZ + 2 x $370 for the fees for an economy award ticket).”
If you live outside the delivery area of the Sunday newspaper, you will automatically receive vouchers.
You can read Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung from Monday to Sunday — along with the Sunday newspaper — in their original layout as an e-paper from 20:00 the evening before at home on your desktop computer or laptop computer.
F.A.Z. PLUS and F.A.Z. Kiosk — both of which are mobile software application programs which you can download for free to your portable electronic device — combine multimedia processing with a classic newspaper layout. With features like “Bookmark article” or “Share”, these mobile software application programs can potentially be useful when you are on the go.
Summary
This offer is an easy way to add up to 999 free Miles & More miles to your account with little effort; and once they are added to your account, you could always unsubscribe…
…but if you do take advantage of the first offer, you cannot qualify for the other offer, as you are limited to participating in only one deal every six months; and both of these offers expire on Saturday, 31 December 2016.
In other words, you have to choose between one offer where you can earn up to 999 free Miles & More miles; or the other offer where you pay 838.80 euros for 60,000 Miles & More miles.
