Can someone confirm if I would have access to a Star Alliance arrival Lounge in Zurich? I am United Global services if that matters. TIA!

What is the lowest number of PQDs you’ve seen someone qualify for UA Global Services with, especially out a hub? IAD here.

Just wondering if this triple dip would work:
Book Marriott hotel through United MileagePlus Shopping giving 1 mile per $, Marriott points for stay and 6 points per $ for using Bonvoy Brilliant card?

Anyone else having trouble logging into their United airlines account? Yes I know it’s a shit airline but I live in Chicago and it’s a hub

Got an email saying I scored United Gold via status challenge back in Sept but I actually did the challenge last year. I won’t make gold thru normal PQM/S/D.. does this mean I get it for 2020 anyway?!

I’m 4,613 PQM away from United 1K and am wondering if it’s worth the ~$900 I’d have to spend.

My deciding factor is the upgrade for international flights. Any insight into how these are used?

I just status matched to united platinum for the rest of this year and through 2020. Will I be granted more RPUs in 2020?

Just went to industry so I want to make the most of last yr of status!

United global services - anyone know what the ROM spend is to qualify this year? Just over 40k now and can prob rack up 20k+ in the next month so weighing if I go status or better schedule flights

United gold status and flying to Japan. Can I book economy plus seats? If so, only eligible on UA flight or also on ANA?

New to United 1K and trying to use RPUs on a regional flight but everything is waitlisted. Anyone have tips how to secure confirmed upgrade using certificates at the time of booking?

Which is a better way to book a flight- 25K United miles or $200?

Apologies if this has been asked already. All my flights are booked thru the rest of the year. I will be only 1,919 PQMs short of the United status I want. Can I get PQMs w/o booking a flight?

25k miles or $400 for a round trip flight? United 1K but have never cashed in on miles, so no idea how much the miles are worth 🤗

Hi 🐠, have a trip coming up that I could use some advice for. Have to book a non-refundable economy trip to Osaka, can fly from Philadelphia or New York. United 1k with lots of GPU/miles (continued)

Better lounge? Admirals Club or united Club?

Have united gold - - booked a flight with points (east coast 1.5h flight) but I'm not on the upgrade list, do award flights not have complimentary upgrades? Website says nothing

Lyft vs uber for rewards? Company politics removed, which has a better rewards system? Flying United not delta FYI and have enjoyed the $5 uber cash every 500 points

Flight got canceled earlier this evening because of a mechanical issue. United Gold (with 16k spend, so I feel like I have a case for 1k), how many miles should I ask for? And how (email, phone call)?

Have to take client call at EWR.

I’m United Global Services, have Priority Pass, and a United Transcon First Class ticket.

Where’s best place to take with lounge access, etc.? Thanks Fish.

Booked flights for rest of the year and realized I’d be 484 PQM or 1.5 PQS short of United 1K. Changed one set of flights from one to two stops and still 38 PQM or 0.5 PQS short🤦‍♂️ Hacks? Thanks!

What is the actual process to get access to United Club lounge? I hear a different story every week. Feels like the receptionists are the final decision makers and nothing else matters.

Does anyone have any experience working for United Airlines in Chicago? Planning to apply for a few positions this week and wondering if anyone has any insider tips?

Going to be short of United 1K by $1100 PQD. Is it worth taking a couple trips and spending personal funds to qualify?

Chicago 🐡, does anyone use Delta as their main airline? I’ve been building United status, but I flex travel a lot to Delta hubs and Delta planes tend to be a lot nicer... any thoughts?

If you’re roughly 9000 PQM short of United Gold Premier, is it worth it to go for it for next year? Not sure if I will have more company travel this year and not sure how I should consider the choice.

Diamond w/ Delta & have 0 status w/ any other airline except w/e basic United status Marriott gives. New project in Chicago, worth it to switch or just deal w/40 min layovers in Detroit/Atlanta?

Won’t qualify for United 1k, not even sure I’ll be gold. Looking for potential matching ideas. SFO/SJC are preferred airports and my preferred airline ultimately would be united or southwest ideally.

Flying to NYC on Sunday. Any New Yorkers know if I should avoid LGA due to construction or will Sunday be okay? Prefer to fly United.

Flying United Polaris for the first time. Thoughts/feedback/tips from anyone who’s flown with them?

United Gold and flying Lufthansa/United on an int’l trip. Can I access the United or Lufthansa lounge at my departure airport (SFO)?

I know I can abroad with SA Gold

United Club in ATL only has 1-ply toilet paper available. How many points?

Gonna be traveling to Houston from NYC weekly. Which airline should I pick? I have some United miles already, and already have United silver status (thanks Marriott)
