I don't think I've grumbled yet about the major changes that United made last fall to their Mileage Plus program, which will guarantee that I won't be maintaining my Gold status past January 31, 2021. They've pretty much switched from a mileage based program to a spend based program like everybody else, which isn't good for a thrifty leisure-only traveller like myself
Though I suppose I was pretty lucky to obtain Star Alliance Gold status in the first place, having only $1,654 USD (!) in spend... 2019 was the final year for Mileage Plus where you were exempt from a minimum spend as long as you didn't have a US based address.
I actually would have made platinum with plenty of room to spare if my roundtrip flight to Australia in May 2019 was with a Star Alliance carrier instead of Delta/Virgin Australia....
not "aiming" for anything. I travel when I travel, and since it's for work, I don't get much flexibility on dates or routes.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
