We've been building multi miles on our United credit cards, too. I don't know how many airlines are involved.

While we're on the subject of rewards, do ya'll know about

www.opentable.com?

Not as generous as the prev. mentioned (Basically you get a $10 G.C. for every 10 resvs) but a tad more sophisticated. What I really like about this resv. service is that they will e-mail your guest(s) w/your message & the resv. includes tel,
#, and exact addresses

Razzle, I have a Visa Check Card and was able to register it with IDine without a problem. I would say contact them and find out. If it's a check card, you should be able to do it since it works like a credit card anyway.

And I have racked up miles in other cities, since a good thing to do is check out what places are with idine when you go on vacation as well as at home!! But the above posters are right about checking what places are offering miles what night and how much. I don't even bother with the ones offering "5 miles on Sundays only".

Thanks Missjanna! I was able to register
the check card. Dissapointed tho that the majority of restaurants in my "neighbohood" won't let you use it on Fri.and Sat. Guess we'll have to take longer vacations during weekdays!

Idine and American Airlines are doing a promo. Register at http://aadvantage.info.aa.com/Key=40191.P69D.G.Nvb701 and get double miles the first 3 times you eat at participating restaurants between 2/9 and 3/31.

Sorry, I must be missing something. I see restaurants in my area giving discounts of 5 to 20 percent but I don't see any info about miles.

Once you sign up, select the FF program and register a credit card(s), then log in, you will see it will change to showing the miles they offer.

The idine program is great if you have restaurants participating. For North Carolina, there are 5 regions. The 'Triangle' region has about 50 restaurants (including multiple locations of the same place) and includes restaurant 100+ miles away. One restaurant was in Goldsboro, which not in the Triangle, but it was the closest listing region.

The triangle area has a lot of restaurnts, but most don't participate.

However, I did find a new bbq place through their listings.
