Gold doesn’t mean squat in a non-hub for upgrades , let alone a major medallion base like NYC. Mileage run FTW.

From experience- the drop from plat to gold hurts. Runnnnnn.

run that shit

Run if you're going to be flying the same/more next year.

Always go for the higher status and do better the next year.

Can someone explain to me what run means? New to medallion status

Taking a flight (usually round trip) just for enough miles or $$$ to make it to your desired status. I.e. round trip from nyc to O’Hare and don’t leave the airport

My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
