Talk about serendipity: these two messages with similar subject lines showed up back-to-back in my inbox the other evening. Not only are the subject lines similar, but the theme of both as well: each message offers bonus credits/miles as an incentive for engaging with the respective airline. With all the consolidation lately in the airline industry, I wonder if they are using the same marketing teams?
