Is there a worthwhile difference between UA Gold and UA Plat? Will most likely be short 5~6k in PQMs and wondering if a mileage run would be worth it

Nope there isn’t. With the new United tier qualification next year, you’ll probably be 1k

They are migrating towards a dollar only qualification scheme. Pretty foreseeable.

Yes. Literally never got an upgrade of gold. Get upgraded 30 to 40% as platinum on off hours or non-hub to hub.

Platinum you can also book people traveling with you into premier seating at no extra cost and earlier upgrades.

Request a waiver through Deloitte travel...I’ve gotten it before.

No difference. I was UA platinum last year and saw 1 upgrade on probably 100 segments.

At 1K this year, and things change, but below that tier your basically not even moving the needle

I expect my workload to remain at this level through the end of the year at least.
