So I just read that United Airlines now lets you use your MileagePlus miles for Lyft rides. Pretty interesting move, right? I mean, it's kind of nice to see airlines making their loyalty programs more flexible. I guess it makes sense to expand rewards beyond just flights, especially since not everyone is flying all the time.
But I'm curious how this'll actually work for people. Are the miles-to-Lyft credits conversion rates going to be any good? And how easy is it going to be to link accounts? I've seen some other programs try similar things, and sometimes it can be a bit of a hassle.
Honestly, I think it's pretty cool that United is doing this, but I'm not sure how many people will actually use it. For those who rack up a ton of miles, it seems like a neat option to have. But for folks who only get a few miles here and there, maybe it won't make a huge difference?
What do you guys think? Would you use your miles for Lyft rides, or do you prefer saving them for flights? Curious to hear your thoughts!
