GS - lots and lots of international business class travel - I estimate +$60k spend. Cannot be done with US-only travel...
Not true, EY 1. 4m miles is for lifetime GS, not the regular annual one
No one has said anything about gold in this thread except EY1
Multi-year GS here. First year got with domestic only, coast to coast often. All first class tickets (not upgrades). Maintain with similar plus a few international each year. Always shoot for at least $45K PQD. Ideally a bit more. Live in non hub. Try t maintain delta diamond too so have to balance
@D1: no need to estimate. Your united account shows you your PQDs. Also, for everyone, keep in mind that $50K of PQDs is like $75K+ of spend as taxes fees etc don't count in PQD
I got Delta 360 this year, Over 25 international trips booked in business. Over 250K miles in one year and near 300K spending on top of regular domestic travel
What the heck are you talking about EY1?
global services is by invite only and you have to have over 4m life time miles and spend I think over 100k a year. It's not a easy club to get into.
@EY2. Gold Status and Global Services are different. But you're correct. To get gold status requires a lot less miles and and money spent than Global Services.
You're clueless, EY1.
Gold Status and Global Services are two different programs. Look it up geniuses!! When OP asked about GS, I assumed Global Services My mistake for thinking you would have knowledge of anything above gold. 😐
OP was asking about Global Services, dummy.
Lmao the rules on gold are preetty clear
I like how EY 1 capitalized "Status" in "Gold Status" and thought it was a real thing. Gosh, the standards are dropping....
D360 - steady domestic flying with 2-3 day advance purchase (not quite enough to make me Diamond) and then a $14k ticket in J. Voila, Porsche rides for everyone!
