You can get the United credit card 60,000 miles bonus miles offer with the United Quest℠ Card, after you spend a total of $4,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening.
It is also possible to get that initial bonus with the United℠ Explorer Card. More specifically, this card offers 50,000 miles for spending $3,000 in the first 3 months. It’s worth mentioning, though, that the United Club℠ Infinite Card has the highest welcome offer, giving 80,000 miles.
With United cards, it’s not just about the bonus. Often, you’ll get extra perks like free checked bags or priority boarding. And you’ll always earn extra miles on United flights.
How much 40,000 miles are worth depends on the airline or credit card you earn them from and when you book your flight. On average, 40,000 miles are worth about $400. But it can vary widely. For example, 40,000 AAdvantage miles are worth roughly $456 in American Airlines airfare. With United, 40k miles get you $416 in flights. And 40k Delta miles are worth $532.
Here’s how much 40,000 miles are worth by airline:
