PRIZE:
\nGrand Prize: One randomly selected winner will receive One Million (1,000,000) Mileage Plus\u00ae miles, awarded as a credit to the winner’s Mileage Plus account, and $5,000, which may be used toward the payment of applicable taxes if the winner so chooses. Approximate Retail Value (ARV) of miles: $20,000. Total ARV of Grand Prize is $25,000. If Grand Prize winner is not a Mileage Plus member, they will be required, at no cost, to become one so that the miles can be credited to their account. Three randomly selected First Prize winners will each receive their choice of an Economy Plus\u00ae annual option (ARV: $425) or a Red Carpet Club\u00ae membership (ARV: $475). Also, after playing all five of the games, eligible participants who enter directly via the website have a chance to win an instant prize, which is a ten percent e-certificate discount applicable to a future united.com flight purchase.<\/p>\n

Instant Winners who entered via mobile device will have a chance to win an instant prize after playing each of the two games. Instant winners can choose either an (1) Economy Plus upgrade (if they are in-airport, they must show winning screen on their phone to a United gate agent, who will upgrade their ticket) (ARV=$9 to $109), (2) a Premier Line upgrade (same as above) (ARV=$19-$49), (3) a Red Carpet Club one-time pass (same as above except this will have an 15 digit code which the winner must also show to a Red Carpet Club agent for access to club) (ARV=$39-$50), or (4) an e-certificate discount, which will be emailed to the winner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
