Earlier tonight I wrote about a ridiculous deal offering up to 150,000 miles in the Gol Smiles program for even a one night hotel stay that cost $600 or so.
The deal was in Portuguese, and the terms mentioned being restricted to residents of Brazil, which scared some folks off. Others took the plunge because this sort of mileage-earning offer doesn’t come along very often.
I’ve confirmed (and it’s been shared by Rocketmiles in the comments to the earlier post) that:
- There was a glitch in the algorithm that created these amazing offers.
- Existing bookings will be honored as long as customers complete their stays.
- Customers do not need to be from Brazil to earn with this promo.
I’m still seeing excellent deals, though it appears they’ve been dialed back somewhat. For instance,
Thanks Ad… I hope they do not remove the miles later saying that the T&Cs of the offer were not met….
