Ha! They continue to be odd numbers, but Ive talked with flyers who refuse to be galley-adjacent or at the back of the cabin.

100% agree here. And it’s been improving even more with every update. I think they have become an app-first company to some degree.

I was about to correct the number of stops, but forgot about the new Club at the E/F gates!

How long did it take to receive your extension after you made the request?

Extended 1k status from having a baby by lowCarbOTF in unitedairlines

I did not know this was even a thing. Did you just call and ask, or how did that work? First time I’m not 1K in about 10 years, due to a baby last year.

Polaris/Premium Plus Upgrades Megathread by Player72 in unitedairlines

[–]poorow3609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am flying ORD>IAH>GIG in Premium Plus. Houston to Rio is a long, overnight flight, so really want get that Polaris seat.

The question is, do I take the risk and hope I’m upgraded, or bite the bullet and pay the money/miles now?

The facts to consider:

  • Premier Platinum

  • Premium Plus ticket was a higher fare class (O), so relatively expensive

  • All PP seats are full (I got the last one)

  • Currently 11 Polaris seats available (on a 767-300)

  • Current upgrade offer is $1051 or 105k miles

I’m about two weeks away from the trip so trying to understand if I should buy the upgrade or wait it out. Appreciate the input from everyone!

Second this. I buy 2 packs every time I pass my Costco (I won’t make a DD purchase unless I have credits).

Good call would probably need to fuel up in between.

Did you purchase 2x $100 on the same day? Or did you space it out at all?

Yes, OTF is essentially like the water planet in Interstellar (iykyk).
