TPG recently ran an experiment: We had a bunch of our staffers search for the same flights on United Airlines. Some got big mileage discounts. Others got none. Who came out ahead? Spoiler alert: It was no coincidence.

Delta Air Lines, for instance, offers 15% off its award flights — but only to certain customers.
