Continental/United is doing it as well as Delta - I recently booked tickets on these two airlines and noticed it....have not seen it yet on American but i believe you

Some people who are just a tad short to get a FF ticket buy them if they can not wait for milkes to post from making a purchase. Not for me

Right - I do recall seeing something like this in the example you give above. But offering it on checkin when I'm printing boarding passes for a flight paid for long ago? Seems odd. But maybe they're just trying to expand the marketing/exposure to increase "sales."
