Editor's Notes

Card Highlights This card is best if you fly United (or Continental) often, and your employer reimburses you for travel expenses. You'll earn double miles for purchasing airfare directly from United's website. Even though many of us prefer to look at discount travel websites to find the lowest fares, many corporate travelers already have access to United's cheapest flights. Although the merged airline has added some super-saver award tickets for 20,000 miles round trip, most of the carrier's available award tickets start at 25,000 miles each way. If your employer uses United as its preferred airline, you can rack up miles quickly for personal travel with just a $25 fee for each reward ticket.
