United MileagePlus members have a promotion to get a free TimeShifter membership or 500 bonus miles when purchasing an annual plan. This is a unique offer, most interesting for those who cross time zones often. Let's look at the details of this app designed to fight jet lag and the current promotion.
What Is TimeShifter?
TimeShifter is an app that helps to modify your internal circadian (24-hour) clock in order to reduce jet lag when you travel. The app claims that most jet lag advice is false and not based on real science, saying it often makes jet lag worse. TimeShifter's scientific approach gives real-world advice on actions to take pre-, mid-, and post-flight to reduce or eliminate jet lag.
Astronauts, business executives, sports teams, and many other frequent travelers use TimeShifter with a high level of success, based on the reviews. The app gives advice such as when to have bright or dim light before your flight, when to stop drinking coffee and when to resume, how and when to use melatonin, etc.
TimeShifter Promotion for United MileagePlus Members
When you download TimeShifter, your first tailored plan to fight jeg lag is free. Thereafter, plans are $9.99 each. On the other hand, you can buy an annual subscription for $24.99. That's obviously the better deal if you'll purchase three or more plans a year.
Currently, there are two offers for United MileagePlus members. Premier 1K members can claim a free subscription to TimeShifter, available here. All other United members will receive 500 bonus miles when paying $24.99 for the annual plan.
Many people have reported a bug when trying to use the link for Premier 1K members to claim a full year of TimeShifter. You may need to contact TimeShifter if this happens.
Our Take
If you've ever had your vacation, work, or just life in general upset by jet lag, TimeShifter might be a nice option. I plan to use the app myself on my next long-haul flight to Thailand coming up soon. If you're interested in better tips for fighting jet lag, you may be able to get a free TimeShifter plan or bonus miles, thanks to promotions for United MileagePlus members.
