US Airways Extends Shuttle Guarantee Program and Triple-Mile Bonus

US Airways has renewed its commitment to a convenient and hassle-free Shuttle travel experience by extending its guarantee and mileage onus programs.
US Airways Shuttle customers will continue to be eligible for a $200 voucher toward future travel on US Airways, US Airways Express or US Airways Shuttle, if, on any Monday through Friday, they are unable to make it to their boarding gate within 20 minutes of checking in at the US Airways Shuttle ticket counter or electronic ticket kiosks to make their scheduled departure to their ticketed destination.
Dividend Miles members traveling the Shuttle also will continue to earn Triple Dividend Miles through Dec. 31, 2002, and the bonus miles count toward Dividend Miles Preferred Status.


“The US Airways Shuttle is the quickest and most convenient means of travel between these important Northeast corridor business and vacation centers,” said US Airways Vice President of Marketing and Revenue Management Stephen M. Usery.
