image In the richest alt-payment bonus we've seen in a long time, PayPal users earn a $50 account credit for purchasing airline tickets at Northwest Air's NWA.com between March 13 and March 27.

The bonus was prominently featured in a promotional email sent to WorldPerks members yesterday (see below). Only one bonus per PayPal account is allowed, and the fare must be at least $250. 

PayPal is also accepted at Southwest, AirTran and US Airways.

Airline Number of PayPal Transactions*

Does that go for all flights? I would definitely think about using it. While $50 bones ‘isn’t what it used to be, (not even six months ago), it's still a lot of money. Sign me up!

Too bad the offer is already expired! I could use it to buy my FINOVATE travel tickets. :)
