Turkish Airlines is offering doctors 5,000 bonus miles after their first Turkish flight. You must be a Miles & Smiles member and complete an application to be eligible.

It’s not entirely clear to me whether only revenue tickets qualify, and also if you’re on a paid ticket whether you actually have to credit your miles to Turkish in order to qualify. Would be kind of funny to offer this only to doctors on revenue tickets!

To celebrate their new partnership with Singapore Airlines, Virgin America is offering 500 Elevate points just for “liking” them on Facebook!

Simply go to this Facebook page, hit “like,” and you’ll be prompted to enter your name, email address, and Elevate account number.

This also automatically puts you in the running for winning two Singapore Airlines (coach) tickets.

But hey, it’s an easy way to get 500 Elevate points for free!

Through February 3, 2013, American is offering 100 bonus AAdvantage miles for enrolling in the AAdvantage eShopping mall and opting in to email communications from them until the bonus points post (which should be within 8-10 weeks).

You can also earn 300 bonus AAdvantage miles if you make a purchase through the mall during the promotion period, and an extra 600 miles if you make a second qualifying purchase of $100 or more during the promotion period.

While 100 miles isn’t a lot, it’s a great way to extend the expiration of an account.

Hello from first class on Emirates 355, an Airbus 380 somewhere over the Indian Ocean between Singapore and Dubai.

Anyway, as I hinted at yesterday, I’m giving away 10,000 Membership Rewards points to whoever is the first to correctly guess the sum of the following while I’m still in the air (about another five hours from the time this post is published) in the comments section of this post:

• The number of times I’m addressed by name on the flight
• The number of hot towels I’m served throughout the flight
• The number of languages spoken by the crew (which is usually announced at the beginning of the flight)
• The number of times I’m served drinks or they’re topped off

One guess per person, please, and I’ll announce the winner once I land. The 10,000 points can be transfered to any loyalty program account that partners with the US Membership Rewards program.

If you’d like to follow along with every aspect of the flight, be sure you’re following me on Instagram and Twitter!
