Platinum. Basically never get upgraded hub to hub but get upgrades on a lot of flights to non United hubs.

Was on a SFO to ORD and was 57th on the upgrade list even as Platinum

Not even sure, want to say gold. Have done a minimal amount of flying the past couple of years. I guess I wouldn’t be surprised to see everybody out and about now with holiday travel. Probably everywhere is seeming that much busier. Not really sure how it actually stacks up though.

Also Platinum. Rarely get upgraded

Airlines got smart and offer the premium seats like business and first at much reduced prices especially as the flight gets closer. That’s reduced the available upgraded seats. Lots of people willing to spend a couple hundred extra to sit up there.

1k
I’m pretty regularly like 30th on the upgrade list out of Chicago or any hub, almost never get upgrades

Last time I flew out of ORD, there were 16 GS and 40+ 1K on the same flight. The gate agent made that announcement so that the non-statused would understand that the pre-board line is going to be very long.

1K for the last 15 years

You are so cool Patrick!!

Cattle class for the win lol

Ew United

Yes, everyone really is. Interestingly, I was a Delta loyalist until my move to Chicago not too long ago. And I felt like royalty being a Delta anything-premier member flying out of ORD

I was supportive of Lori when this virus first started but her actions since have dwindled my support of her. I don’t expect her to make every decision correct nor do we have to agree with all of them. I believe she should be correct around 75 percent of the time but I believe she is in the 50 percent range. I know everything doesn’t fall on her shoulder but things haven’t been great as of late. Hopefully they figure out something soon.
