One Mile at a Time posted about a very targeted offer where you would be able to use your Membership Reward Points from Amex for United or AA flights. If you wanted to see if you were targeted, you must have your card in hand when calling. Apparently these were only offered to about 30k members so you would be pretty lucky to get targeted. Hopefully they roll this out in the future as it would be a great opportunity.

Heels First posted that you can access certain National Parks today for free. Happy MLK Day everyone!
