As an enhancement to its carbon-offset program, United is allowing MileagePlus members to redeem miles for offsets to cover the carbon emissions associated with their air travel. The company’s existing program provides all United customers the opportunity to calculate and purchase offsets for their travel and cargo shipments, but now United allows frequent flyers to redeem miles for the purchase of carbon offsets and support projects that benefit renewable wind-power generation and forest conservation. MileagePlus members who book online at united.com can choose to offset their emissions after booking and select from a list of United Eco-Skies partners to redeem their miles for the offset.
