US Airways will reduce by half the period during which Dividend Miles members must have account activity in order to preserve the life of their miles.
According to the US Airways Web site: "Effective December 1, 2006, active membership status is based on having earned or redeemed miles within a consecutive 18-month period. With our new Mileage Reactivation Policy, Dividend Miles members have an opportunity to reinstate their Dividend Miles accounts to active status for an additional 18 months for a $50 processing fee and reactivation fee of $.01 per mile. If members do not extend with this reactivation option, the Dividend Miles account will be closed and all miles forfeited.
"Members who have no account activity for a consecutive 36-month period will have their accounts closed and will forfeit all miles in their accounts. Once forfeited, miles cannot be reinstated."
