Worth doing United status match or save it for later years when close to exiting Consulting? Just started working and have Platinum on AA.

Anyone knows how many points to upgrade from biz to first on Lufthansa (Europe to US) using United miles? Couldn't find online

I’m looking to do a status match challenge from Delta to United, but everything I find says that United will “release their status match details soon” for 2020. Is that typical for UA?

Has anyone done Delta’s reclaim status program? Lost platinum due to being local, and I can’t do another status match for 2 years. I’ll be traveling coast to coast til June if that makes a difference

Just called AA as I was just under the threshold for platinum pro and they made an exception and honored my upgrade. No mileage run, no getting tossed in Mexico jail for a mileage run.

United Platinum question: I know for award redemption domestically you can get a miles redeposit for free, but does that include int'l travel on partner airlines?

On a mileage run today: DFW-CLT-ATL-MIA-DFW.

Any way to buy EQM’s on AA? will be 2500 short of executive platinum and no way to fly the rest of the year.

I won’t re-qualify for EP this year, what’s my strategy for next year to maximize what I currently have? Status match to UA or DL? My home base is ORD.

Will AA reduce the fee to upgrade to platinum pro if I get closer? For example I’m 60k EQMs now and offer is $1750 to upgrade to PP. if I get to 70k eqm will the upgrade fee be reduced?
