Unless I'm reading something wrong, I'm impressed with these changes:

More miles/quicker status to 1st/Business passengers (assuming that is for paid fares only) - reward those spending more money without penalizing others (i.e. keep the same rules for the rest of us roaches)

Automatic upgrades for full fares - benefits flow where the money comes from

Mile/Upgrade bonuses for hitting the tier levels.

Recognition and bonuses for MM flyers.

Additional bonuses past 100K (although no discussion of what happens at 175, 200, 225 - what, they think no one hits those levels?)

Not Bad. B3 - your turn

Still not as good as Chairman's preferred in some ways. But their premium classes of services are truly PREMIUM. Hot towels, glassware and that little china cup with your assorted nuts.

To tell you how bad F Class has gotten on UA, there was a poster complaining that the FA's have stopped warming the assorted nuts served in F Class. Cry me a river. . .they have not see US F Class!
