What is the equivalent of 86910 Miles and More status miles once converted into United status miles? I am UA 1K. Would that be the same number of United status miles?</font>
UA is very stingy rewarding passengers on First Class tickets. If the trip above were credited to Mileage Plus, one would earn 22176 status miles. As a 1K, you would earn 34264 total Mileage Plus miles including 1K bonus and Class of Service bonus. Mileage Plus seems to be designed to encourage high fare passengers to go elsewhere.
