Normally, it’s quite hard to find a good Miles & More deal for earning miles that doesn’t involve flying anywhere.   However, when these rare non-flight related deals come up, they’re usually quite good.

That’s the case at the moment.

getAbstract has long been a partner of Miles & More and typically provides a deal where you get 15,000 miles for signing up for their ‘Pro’ Subscription.   Until November 30th, they’ve sweetened the deal and will award you 20,000 miles for signing up.

What is getAbstract?

Call it ‘ Cliffs Notes ‘ for adults.    It is a service that provides executive summaries for thousands of books across the non-fiction space including Business, History, Self-Improvement, Biographies, etc.etc.    Using their app or desktop you can easily access their library no matter where you are.

It’s actually a useful program whose benefits I think may even out weigh the value of the miles that you’ll receive.

The cost of the subscription is $299/year so when doing the math, it distills down to  1.495 cents per mile.   I’ve been hard pressed to find anything that comes close to getting this many miles in one deal for such a low cost.  Considering ‘Meilenschnappchen’ deals let you redeem Economy roundtrips for 30,000 miles or 55,000 miles for Business Class Roundtrips between the USA and Europe, getting 20,000 miles for only $299 works out quite nicely.

The deal for the 20,000 miles expires on November 30, at which point the offer will probably revert back to only getting 15,000 miles.

If you do decide to sign up, here’s a tip:

Normally, getAbstract gives you a 30 day money back guarantee period which delays your miles from crediting until after 30 days.   However, if you email them asking them to waive the return period, they’ll credit your miles within a few days.

To learn more about the deal, please visit the getAbstract promo on the Miles & More website.  Scroll down to the bottom of that page and you’ll see the ad box showing an additional 5k miles bonus being advertised.
