AUTO BUYING FOR MILESSerial 75736482 · Supplemental Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Northwest Airlines, Inc.
Class 035 - Advertising & Business
Filed Jun 24, 1999
Registered Jul 04, 2000
The record shows that “AUTO BUYING FOR MILES” is a cancelled Supplemental Register service mark owned by Northwest Airlines, Inc.; the registration was cancelled on April 7 2007 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The only listed service is “Promoting the services of automobile dealers by awarding air‑transportation mileage points for automobile purchases” in International Class 035, so a similar name used in any other context—such as retail sales, software, or travel booking—would be farther from the scope shown here. Because the mark sits on the Supplemental Register, the prosecution history reflects an initial refusal for descriptiveness, a subsequent amendment to the description, and eventual approval for Supplemental registration in July 2000, which does not confer the same presumptions of distinctiveness as a Principal Register entry. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 2007, and the supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a service that rewards car purchases with airline miles, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated goods or services.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
