The flight attendant on my flight went seat by seat and personally welcomed every 1K and Global Services passenger, 47 in all(!), on my flight.

I definitely appreciate the welcoming gesture!

Im a United flyer but had to fly Delta once. The attendant came and said “thanks for being a silver medallion member”. I’ve never been more embarrassed.

That and the condescending sneers from all the platinums or whatever you delta people have. I wanted to scream out my United Hilton Marriott and enterprise and Avis (yes sir both) status.

(I hope people get that I’m just trying to be funny here)

Might have been quicker to berate / insult the United Silvers and non-status holders tbh

Had a captain do that once and, while I was appreciative, I was a little worried about how long he was out of the cockpit lol

Gave every 1K a business card with a personalized note

Delta attendant stopped by my seat this week and thanked me for being a million miler. The couple sitting next to me stared at her. It was a little awkward, so she improv-ed- “And thank YOU TWO for flying with us too!”

This is a United flight that you’re assuming is already leaving on time. 😂

Once again reminding you how useless the status has become.

It’s fine if you get it incidentally but given how much you’d have to travel, spend, and pay for it, the fact that it’s so common means that you rarely get upgrades.

Next year it should be a little harder, I think the 1K PQP’s will be rough for domestic flyers 🤷‍♂️

Just take off and give me the Pringle's plz
