Vaccinated?
If you upload your vaccine card to your United profile using the sweepstakes link by June 22nd, 2021, you’ll be entered to win one of 30 free flights (any destination; any cabin).
Prizes:
- 5 grand prize winners, selected randomly on July 1, will receive one year of free travel to any United destination in any class of service for themselves and one companion traveling with them.
- 30 winners, selected randomly in June, will win a roundtrip flight for two in any class of service, anywhere United flies.
The process is straightforward. Just follow the instructions to upload a picture of your vaccination card (10mb max, make sure your image isn’t an iPhone generated HEIC file as that will be rejected). I personally opted out of lettingUnited use my vaccine card to build their machine AI. It’s an optional checkbox.
As far as them having my vaccine info on file, I have no privacy issue with that, especially as I expect to need it for international travel.
I’m sure many will find a reason to get upset about this promotion, but if you aren’t vaccinated or just don’t feel comfortable uploading your card info, you can pass on the promo.
I don’t expect to win, but since I figure I’ll need to provide it later anyway, I may as well be entered to win.
