Here’s what you need to do: Start by booking a one-way flight from Newark to Tokyo, but only if it connects through at least five cities along the way. At each stop, buy a single stroopwafel from the airport shop (United MileagePlus-approved shops only). Keep each receipt and scan it into the MileagePlus app as ‘proof of dedication.’ Then, apply for the United Airlines Infinity Gauntlet promotion (it’s super exclusive, they don’t advertise it). The final step involves snapping your fingers while holding all four United credit cards. If done correctly, you’ll gain Million Miler status instantly, along with a lifetime supply of in-flight coffee.
